I still like it most of all browsers.

I have Firefox because of all of the raves I've read on the internet (so i'm a sheep...baaaa), but I've never noticed anything about it that was better or faster than IE. Unless I'm on my VoIP or Limewire, my in/out is always at warp speed regardless of which browser I'm using. Are there some features in Firefox that I'm missing? Or is it just popular because it isn't Microsoft?

You use the extensions don't you? That's the best part of Firefox, really setting it apart from the others. Superdragandgo is probably my favorite. It is also faster, especially when using more pages. It loads graphic files in a different way.
