Shame about add-ons Must Read (Mozilla Firefox)
Member Name: gunnerz
Advantages: Better than IE Disadvantages: Slow loading times to previous editions To be honest since the introduction of version 3 firefox has been going downhill ever since. It had once started out as a lightweight alternative to the dreadful internet explorer (IE) but since then it has become just as bloated if not even worse that IE. There are a few good points though which warrants it a better browser than IE. The fact that possibly anybody could create an add-on for the browser was what lead me to the browser, this coupled with the sheer speed created the ultimate browser. Now add-ons itself have made the browser bloated and even the ones that catergorize themself as "small footprint" hog down the internet browser experience. This may be just a second or two per page but think about how many pages you view per day and calculate how much time would be wasted over a month and you would be surprised. The best and only add-on that I still left installed was VideoDownloader which let me keep videos from youtube on my phone and on the good side it also converted the video on the fly to save time. Since then though I have adopted Google's Chrome to be my default browser which I have also reviewed. To be entirely honest Firefox is going to be heading in the same way as IE unless they get their priorities right which is showing in Firefox 4 although it is only a beta production at the moment. Summary: Following IE... a distaster waiting to happen
