"Right. I've had enough......"

Enough of Microsoft bl00dy Windows, enough of their crappy Internet explorer that lets every virus under the sun through. I've just got yet another Virus through the crappy thing which brings the total up to about 5. I only rebooted my PC last month and I'll now be doing it again, but this time I'll come back armed with Mozilla, Norton and Ad-aware because I've had enough of this.

GAH!

The morale of the story is, Internet explorer is sh!tw@nk.

no, Firefox is a full browser built around the mozilla engine.
Mozilla 1.7 is a full net package (browser, email, newsgroups, etc) but Firefox is JUST a browser. the good news is that it's SO much safer than IE (i saw someone complaining that the new version of firefox has an "allow sites to install software" option, but that's only for firefox extensions and plugins... nothing sinister)

Ta for clearing that up. I haven't used the original Mozilla so wouldn't really know

No it isn't it's separate.

I just downloaded Firefox rather than Mozilla. I think Firefox is just Mozilla but with some bits like email client taken out. Best get a confirmation off someone else though. But it does rock as it is.

Ah I see now. Firefox is an add-on for Mozilla right?

Should I be getting Firefox instead of Mozilla 1.7?

I wouldn't know, I've been using Firefox for too long :P

Linux.
