You may be using a bookmark that is no longer functional as John made some changes to the site. Check your links.

I've never used FireFox before, is it really that much better?

Yes.

Way way way way more spyware/adware resistant. Much better user interface. For example.. tabbed browsing.

The only issue with Firefox is that it can get a little squirrely with sites designed specifically for IE...

Other than that, Firefox or Netscape (preferably Firefox) over IE anyday.

Tabbed browsing is one of the better features... not to mention that you can get the whole Mozilla suite with it... Thunderbird email client (makes outlook seem geriatric) as well as code editors.

Yep, my only b!tch. Some sites use IE specific code. That's the only time I'll use IE.

I'll have to try that again, I guess. I briefly flirted with it, didn't spend enough time, and walked away --- still clunking along w/ Outlook 2003. :sleep_125
