Correcting your comment:And one of their security experts has the _first_ name "Window"._She_ reported a vulnerability a few weeks ago and I called it "Another one of Window's vulnerabilities".
I apologize if I came off sounding "holier than thou". That certainly wasn't my intention. I really do love Firefox, I just hate the fact that it is based off of Gecko. WebKit is twice as fast (according to SunSpider and I-Bench) and it has a cleaner codebase. That's not to say "Gecko sucks", but I just strongly believe that WebKit is a better rendering engine.

Or that it IS the internet- they don't actually know what a browser is.

Firefox 3, is and will be amazing. It's so much better than any other browser I can't imagine using anything else.

It makes a lot of claims. Most of which are outright lies.

Most Opera "fanboys" actually like Firefox. It has some very nice features (Adblock being one of the best). We just prefer Opera.

Opera is free as in beer, not as in speech.(I'm not a Stallmanite or anything, but I prefer free as in speech when possible)
