What's that... ie is your favorite browser because it is just plainly better than firefox, no matter what extension is installed? ... i know, you don't need to state the obvious, because firefox is like the "macintosh" of browsers. there is a reason why the world in on ie.

i like IE due to the fact it has commerical support, is well integrated, well supported by plugins, lots of pages work on it, and it is easy to keep updated, and can be locked down centrally in a commercial enviorment.

IE6 runs fast but has so many security holes, and is not standards compliants. I like IE7 better for this reason, plus IE7 has tabs. Only downside of IE7 is its a bit slow
