Got to love this Firefox

I am greatly enjoying this move to Firefox. There is lots I need to learn about the details and uses but the basic browser and faborites features are awesome. I connect way faster than with IE. As I use them the most visited sites are promoted in my bookmarks listings. Pictures , videos , links , etc all come right up easily without me making a million choices are downloading other programs , etc.

I can't beleive I didn't hear how great this was until now. Its been around a long time.

Anyway , everybody should try this. Its awesome and free.

I'm glad you like it.

Now that you've had some time with it, check out this page for some add-ons.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/

People have made just about anything you need as an add-on for FireFox.

A couple of my favorites that I find handy everyday:
Forecastfox https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/398

GooglePreview https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/189

FlashBlock https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/433

Firefox is the best. I hate having to use IE for work (Microsoft is a client and they only allow IE for the internal company sites).

Ride the spiral to the end...............
