graphic7 said:From my experience, Opera is much, much more stable than Firefox/Mozilla, and the memory footprint is much lower, as well. I've run Opera, Firefox, and Mozilla on a number of platforms/architectures, and Opera always comes out ahead as far as stability is concerned. I've used Mozilla since version 0.7, Firefox since version 0.9, and Opera since version 8.5 (when Opera became completely free). From what I've seen, Mozilla and Firefox haven't gotten anymore stable, yet, I'm able to run Opera sessions for over a month without a crash -- Mozilla and Firefox are lucky to hold up for over a week. I also have the Flash and Java plugins installed on Mozilla, Firefox, and Opera.

franznietzsche said:Generally I agree. Opera beats Firefox, and is the best browser I have used. However, Opera lacks firefox extensions. Firefox extensions add so much functionality. Mouse gestures, sidebar, foXpose, foxytunes, etc. Firefox w/ extensions, while still less stable than Opera is so much more functional that it still wins out IMO.

sicjeff said:personally i have both ie7 and opera. Opera is so much better. I recently downloaded it due to all of the problems that I have been having with ie7. IE7 is the worst browser out of the competive market.
I, every rare once in a while, run into a page that has issues with Firefox. The beauty is that I DL'd the extension "IE Tab" and all is well. I simply press a button and firefox runs an IE page within it. It may not be the most efficient in terms of programming, but I think it's a slick idea to fix little annoyances.BernardG said:I have all three, IE, Firefox and Opera. I like Opera the best. But very rarely Opera does not render a page correctly causing me to use Firefox.

The Mozilla browser is a free and open-source web browser developed by the Mozilla Foundation. It is available for multiple operating systems and is known for its speed, security, and customization options.
Some examples include tabbed browsing, built-in privacy protection, support for add-ons and extensions, and faster page loading speeds.
The Mozilla browser is considered more secure because it is regularly updated with security patches and has built-in features such as pop-up blockers and anti-phishing protection. It also has a smaller market share, making it less of a target for hackers.
Yes, you can still use IE if you switch to the Mozilla browser. In fact, many websites are designed to be compatible with multiple browsers, so you can use whichever one you prefer.
No, the Mozilla browser is designed to be user-friendly and easy to use. It has a similar interface to other popular browsers, making it easy for users to navigate. It also offers helpful tutorials and support for any questions or issues.
