My review ->

Mozilla Firefox is the dream Internet browser you’ve been looking for. Features includes tabbed browsing, built-in and customizable search bars, and a built-in RSS reader, Mozilla’s Firefox browser is the one that should finally put a dent in Microsoft Internet Explorer’s unrivaled market dominance. If you’re fed up with the latest Internet Explorer security patch issued from Microsoft or with the latest virus to capitalize on some flaw in IE, you should switch to Firefox--now !.
Mozilla Firefox is a fast, full-featured Web browser that makes browsing more efficient than ever before.

Firefox includes >>
>>1. Pop-up blocking
>>2.a tab-browsing mode that lets you open several pages in a single window(Huge advantage over IE where you have to open several windows which eat your system resources)
>>3.integrated Google searching
>> 4.simplified privacy controls that let you cover your tracks more effectively
>> 5.a streamlined browser window that shows you more of the page than any other browser; and a number of additional features that work with you to help you get the most out of your time online.

The latest release of Mozilla Firefox offers enough features to make you rethink Internet Explorer.
1.You can easily create toolbars by dragging and dropping icons.
2.Live Bookmarks turn RSS feeds into something that acts like a bookmarks folder.
3. You can type Google search queries right into the address bar or use the built-in search box.

>>For advanced user
: -
1.The program displays the page source in a new window, using indents and color-coded tags like an HTML editor.
2. You can view your bookmarks or history in the Sidebar area, which lets you quickly revisit your favorite sites (IE doesn’t).
3.At 55MB for 25 windows, the browser uses fewer resources than Internet Explorer. The built-in pop-up blocker works better IE.
People who want more security than IE provides should look at Mozilla Firefox.

>>Main Features
>>One major interface difference is Firefox’s tabbed browsing feature, which lets you open several Web pages within a single browser window. Quickly move among pages by clicking the tabs at the top of the window. Tabbed browsing is not available in Internet Explorer.

Enhanced Security features over IE :->
Firefox is more secure than Internet Explorer, in part because most criminal hackers look for holes in the But there are also several structural differences that make Firefox an inherently more secure browser. First, Firefox doesn’t support VBScript and ActiveX Controls, which are often the source of attacks and vulnerabilities within IE. Unfortunately, the lack of ActiveX support also affects the performance of some Web sites. (Very few sites). But at most sites, Firefox worked just as well as IE 6.0.
Another difference from Internet Explorer is in how Firefox handles secure Web sites, such as e-commerce or online banking sites. When visiting a secure site, Firefox highlights the address bar’s URL in yellow and shows the Lock icon. If you click the Lock icon, you can review the site’s security information and decide whether to continue. The domain name of the site you are visiting is also listed in the right-hand corner of secure windows, so you know the true source of every page.

>>Setup and interface

Mozilla Firefox runs on a variety of Windows operating systems, including Windows 98 through XP, as well as on Mac OS X and several varieties of Linux, including Red Hat Linux 8.0.
>>The hardware requirements for Firefox are minimal.
>>PCs require only an Intel Pentium II or AMD K6 processor
>>It took us about 2 minutes to download the Firefox installer, The Mozilla Organization offers a number of tools to ease the transition from Internet Explorer. YOU CAN IMPORT YOUR IE BOOKMARKS TO MOZILLA!!

>>SEARCH BAR: -
Perhaps the most noticeable interface difference from IE is the addition of a customizable search bar built into the Firefox menu bar. Although Google, Yahoo, and others offer plug-in search bars for Internet Explorer, the Firefox search bar is much more flexible, allowing you to add not only other search engines but Amazon.com, eBay.com, Dictionary.com, and even IMDB.com.

Download it now!
So I am giving these important links from where you can get this browser without single penny!
