I'm Andrew. :P

Your avatar is showing me that FireFox weighs more? Or is it telling me that FireFox takes up more room?

I don't believe that. All internets only give you spyware if you go to an curtent site, you don't open IE and get tons of Spyware it doesn't work like that. Your probbaly going somwhere to make it seem like IE sucks and making everyone join Firefox, try going to a virus infected place with FF see how much spyware you get.

Nope, I'm only going on my daily routine. Which is posted on the blogs.

Also, on Firefox I've never gotten a stitch of spyware except "tracking cookies" which I hardly consider dangerous.

If you went to those "daily routines" you would get no spyware unless you screwed up your IE before.

One more thing. SnowThrower, no IE user is gonna care about this re-search, the only people who will say "You see! IE sucks!" is your FireFox pals. Save your time and stop where you are if you really hate IE.

Let the guy do whatever he wants. He has his right to experiment, and he has his right to tell us about it in his thread. If he influences one person to make the switch, I'm sure he'll feel like he helped society.

I never click popup ads. Lots of spyware installs itself as the popup opens.

I'm doing this for my own knowledge, not to convince people.
