Mozilla Firefox vs Internet Explorer?

[Adampy]

I have been using Firefox for about 6 months now and have had no problems thus far. I have also noticed that there are far fewer to no more security alerts popping up from Norton about "an Intrusion was blocked"

I am very happy with Firefox, does anyone know of any problems I might not be aware of?

I also use Thunderbird as my email program.

1) still bugs in FF, but nothing like as much. keep it updated.
2) certain sites only work in IE, sadly. blame the developers.

As fo3nix said, there have been some serious bugs in Firefox which have been fixed (latest version 1.04 has them fixed). There will no doubt be bugs in future versions too.

As for point 2, some of the blame lies at MS's doorstep abusing the prominent position of IE and adding proprietary functionality to industry standards. Some developers use this added functionality to make their life easier and the website much more interactive. Unfortunately at the expense of compatability with other browsers.
