Mozilla

Was thinking about getting Mozilla, I see a few on cnet, which one is the best and the simplest to use? Too many choices and I don't know anybody that uses it to decide. Thanks

I think most people prefer Firefox over Mozilla. I do at least. It is much smaller install and will very quickly import all of your favorites, cookies, etc.

Another vote for Firefox. I've used both Mozilla and Firefox, but I feel that Firefox has a slight edge.

You can get either one at the Mozilla site.

I've been using FireFox the past few months over Moz and I like it, heck try Opera, FireFox and Mozilla and see which one you prefer.

They are constantly releasing beta versions, but you want to download the final release of 0.9.

Avant is based on IE, so it has the same security holes.
