Excellent browser, you'll never go back.

I've been trying it out a bit lately but am not ready to switch over permanently. All I've ever used is Internet Explorer, and I don't take change easily.

I need to upgrade but I don't want to. I still use version 2.0.0.20 so half the sites I visit won't work properly. I just never liked any of the new version 3's.



A lot of people ask me what kind of music I like. I love "soul music". My "soul music" isn’t a style, genre or niche. It’s music that is genuine. It’s a painful lyric, a dirty bassline, it’s a harrowing vocal, it’s feedback, it’s an anthem, it’s a love song, it’s anarchy. I’ve got my personal favourites but in the end it doesn’t matter who or where it comes from... so long as it’s good and it's real.

Over at bleepingcomputer.com word has it that Firefox is the browser of choice for the writers of malware. Why? Because it's open source.

I've only gotten hit with viruses since switching to Firefox. That's mostly my fault, but I never got like this on IE. IE is just a shit browser. Period. Right now my PC is unusable as it needs a serious cleaning and probably a total reformat and reinstall of the operating system.

They've been sneaking viruses and malware into ads. Some on fully legit sites like Google's doubleclick and what not. Nasty business.
