I use it, but only to test sites I build. Other than that, I don't like it. Too slow, despite touting itself as the world's fastest browser. That's FireFox...
Try it, and use it if you like it.

I use Opera. To me it is the fastest browser. But of course never used firefox before either. The main thing about Opera is that it is more secure than IE. Internet Explorer has many loopholes where hackers can get in. With Opera you have many more options to choose from to change the way you want the browser to operate. Such as doing a really good job of blocking popups. I don't remember IE doing that. I remember IE being a pain in the but LOL.
My 2 cents...

I find Firefox a bit slower to start and load web pages than IE, I use it when going to sites I know are risky, but IE is my main browser, as far as popups the XP SP2 IE updates do a wonderful job at blocking them. Use what you like and what your comfortable with.

then when I got SP-2 I uninstalled the google pop up blocker cause the
SP-2 provided one and it works very well!
