Setup's a Snap
At only 4.7MB (Windows), Firefox takes just a few minutes to download over a slow connection and seconds over a fast connection. The installer gets you set up quickly, and the new Easy Transition system imports all of your settings - Favorites, passwords and other data from Internet Explorer and other browsers - so you can start surfing right away.

What can I say? When I first started surfing the net my browser I first used was good 'ol Netscape Navigator 3.0 (as supplied by XTRA at the time I joined) Well I used that as well as the next version they released, then I switched to IE, not by choice mind you, I still prefered Netscape but it just ran too damn slow for me, and unfortunately IE was the quicker of the two. I have been using IE since purely for the fact it's there already. Then I came across this mention of a new browser and I thought what the hell let's give it a try.
Well I tried it and now I will not use any other. It has all the features of IE and a couple more, like open windows in tabs as well as windows. Google as the default search engine, a builtin download manager and best of all it imports all your favourites and settings from IE at installation. Best of all it loads just as fast.
My advise to you if you use IE but want more then download FIrefox from Mozilla.org you won't regret it.
