changing to another browser such as Firefox? I checked their site and the
only comparison I saw is of their version 3 vs 3.5. There is no
comparison of their product and IE. Don’t know about you folks, but
it usually takes a little more than a verbal statement without corroborating
facts to induce me to make a significant change in something like this. I’m
not trying to hammer you Firefox folks here so don’t even start to think
that, but I’ve heard the alternate browser talk for years, but have “never”
seen anything to give me even a bit of a reason to change. I’m open
to hearing any good reasons you may have. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

Personally, I avoid using IE whenever I can. You can often tell a site
that was done using FrontPage (or other MS software)...they don't work
correctly in other browsers.<br>
