Introducing Firefox

Firefox is a browser that belongs in the Mozilla family. It has been gaining increasing popularity and has a large user base due to its ease of use and speed. Below I have outlined some of the features Firefox has that Internet Explorer does not.

Feature List and explanations:

* Tabbed Browsing - This feature allows you to open up new web sites or web pages in the same browser window that you are currently viewing.

* Pop-up Blocker Firefox comes with a built in pop-up blocker. If you enable this feature then by Firefox will block all pop-ups that may occur. If you would like to allow popups from certain sites, then you can configure the pop-up blocker to allow them from that site.
* Extensions- These are pieces of software that you can install that extend the functionality of the program. Extension range from a Google toolbar to a myriad of card games. They are similar in function to ActiveX controls for Internet Explorer.
* Profile Manager - This will allow you to create different profiles, each with their own bookmarks, cookies, and settings, for users who Firefox from the same account.
