Comments on: Firefox Use On The Rise http://belowthebeltway.com/2006/07/14/firefox-use-on-the-rise/ I believe in the free speech that liberals used to believe in, the economic freedom that conservatives used to believe in, and the personal freedom that America used to believe in.

A few days after I installed it, it noticed that Outlook would no longer display emails in HTML form. It took a few days, so I couldn't point to IE7 as the cause. But I uninstalled it last week, and immediately saw my email working properly again. Granted, that was a beta, so they've probably fixed it, but I still didn't like IE7 much. I posted a <a href="http://unrepentantindividual.com/2006/05/27/started-testing-ie7/" rel="nofollow">short review of IE7 here</a>. They've made some definite improvements over IE6, but at best they're now 95% of where Firefox is. And if Firefox 2.0 is on the way, I have a feeling they'll expand their lead. Don’t touch IE7.

Amongst free browsers, there is no competition for the speed and usability. It may not have the add-ons that Firefox does, but that seems rather minor. Being an Apple user, I have to take Safari.
