But since the launch of Mozilla Firefox, I have kicked all of the browsers I was using prior to it. I like Mozilla Firefox for its feature and latest automatic updates. With this browser I have been able to save myself from the load of many Software’s I may have to use. Many of the software’s that I was using prior to it, are available with Mozilla as easy Ad-ons.


The add-ons that I like about Firefox and am using are Google Toolbar, Link checker, Seo for firefox, FireFTP, StumbleUpon, del.icio.us, AI Roboform, ColorZilla etc.


Mozilla is easy to use. I love it for its speed; tab browsing feature, popup blocking, integrated search, improved privacy features and automatic updating.
