Should a switch browsers?

Expand Post »

I'v had this issue lately with the About:blank virus.

I've heard a few rumours that using an internet browser besides IE might solve the problem.
What are the advantages/disadvantages in choosing a new browser? And if I did want to switch, what should I be looking at?

Thanks for yer help.
