firefox - the browser, reloadedAre you tired of fighting with Internet Explorer? There's a better way to surf the Web.

The latest version of the Firefox Web browser offers a host of useful features including:
- pop-up ad blocking
- tabbed browsing
- built-in Google search
- better privacy and security, and
- easy setup and installation

Firefox -- formerly known as "Firebird" -- is a smaller, lighter version of the Mozilla Web browser. (The Mozilla software is also the foundation of the latest Netscape software.)

You can download and run Firefox without disrupting any of your current settings in Internet Explorer. Best of all, it's free. Check it out.
