Comments on: FireFox Still Preferred Over Internet Explorer http://www.cybercoded.net/firefox-still-preferred-over-internet-explorer/ Trying to help others with their Wordpress, PHP and other Web issues. Tue, 31 Aug 2010 10:13:11 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: TheYoungGuy http://www.cybercoded.net/firefox-still-preferred-over-internet-explorer/comment-page-1/#comment-621 TheYoungGuy Tue, 08 Jul 2008 02:21:20 +0000 http://www.cybercoder.net/?p=197#comment-621 Now that Firefox 3.0 has launched and some of the previous issues with it have been resolved, I feel there will be more of those long term IE users switching over. One of the reasons for a lot of people using IE over firefox up to this point was the memory usage that ff 2.0 had. The long it was open the more RAM it used. Especially if you had multiple tabs open. Mozilla fixed this issue by preventing images from storing in the cache if they were not being used. Again, that is only one issue they fixed that helped, but like you said, the add ons are worth it for me. Customizing the entire browser to feel whats best to you. I mean I couldn't ask for more.

You're right about pre-installed software. That's why RSS (and podcast) didn't get off the ground sooner too. I now switch to Flock, but it is still based on Firefox code.
