I'm on IE 6 and SP2, but I've turned off nearly all the security features that came with SP2, because I prefer third-party programs to deal with them.
One thing I didn't like about Firefox was having to keep downloading plugins just to get some sort of functionality. Also, I had grown used to the way that Avant deals with tabbed browsing, and just couldn't get the hang of FF's. Overall, I think it comes down to people's opinion about whether they like it or not. I've read through a lot of discussion on the pros and cons of both IE and FF.

FF rules, do people still use IE unless their employers make them? _________________ 'He looked at her, and being a man whom pity deeply stirred, it seemed to him that her loveliness amid her grief would pierce his heart.' —Faramir's thoughts on Éowyn |

I think some ppl are stuck with IE at work...
I love FF, but the two main websites I use for work will not work properly on FF. Go figure.

using IE6 SP1, the faces on the map don't appear till I press the zoom in button, so I then just zoom back out. |

To some of us that's one of the advantages of Firefox. I don't have a bunch of extra junk that I don't use. I only install those features that I need. Less opportunity for something to break or be exploited.

Gotta agree with Pixie...Tabbed Browsing Rules!!!
IE and the Guest Map didn't work for me so I had to use Firefox. I've been using FireFox since early this year - just love it!

Netscape is just Mozilla with AOL/Netscape add-ons. Use Mozilla, at least, if not Firefox. There's no reason that I can think of to use Netscape (that doesn't involve the letters "PHB").
