I do not think Firefox is faster than IE. There are more viruses to IE just because it's more popular and Firefox is pretty new. If FireFox occupies 80% of the market, who knows what will happen.

For whatever reason, Firefox should be safer, I am not saying faster though. But spyware/adware can make your computor very slow. Check you folder: 5 V2 Z X1 f/ g$ O8 n1 u ; [.

I am using Mozilla in my Linux and IE in my XP. Besides the muti-tab feature, they are almost the same.
