Thanks.
For those people who may not be aware of it, Mozilla Firefox Web Browser was ranked as the #1 Best Product of 2005 by PC World Magazine. http://www.pcworld.com/reviews/article/0,aid,120763,pg,12,00.asp |

What is so good about it that I should take time dowloading and installing when Internet Explorer is doing the job I want? Just asking. mmm |

Well... firstly Firefox is awesome, secondly, it's very versatile with the customability (extensions and themes), and thirdly, it's way more secure... just some of the many reasons to check it out...
