All signs point to Mozilla’s Firefox hitting 1 billion downloads tomorrow which should further the notion that Internet Explorer is out of style.

    • No - It's Firefox that screwing up. I have their "no script" but this new firefox version has been limp and lame since I got it. The IE is not screwing up - although microsoft designs so many superfluous drop-downs and ridiculous choices. They need someone who knows how to design -and forget the design-by-committee - Less is more.
      Same for firefox - go back to the simple version that works.

    • Mikeysfake, you just made me facepalm man... IE comes ALREADY INSTALLED ON WINDOWS... also the newest version of IE is in an AUTOMATIC UPDATE.

      Also to 02 I think you are used the newest IE version because It freezes up when I middle click and does what you said you are having. While Firefox is running fine!

      I'm getting tired if people thinking that because some specific software issue happens to them it happens to everyone!

    • The new Firefox barely works. Especially on Current. I hit a link and it takes maybe 20 seconds before I can scroll - just freezes.
      It has become a glitchy, slow and undesirable browser. The cursor jerking from letter to letter during edits.

      I've had to download Explorer for the first time. I've decried microsoft - but at least it works.
      I can't login to current using it, however. So here I am trying to say something to someone.
      When will Mozilla bring back their old browser - that works?
