1. Love it. The e-mail accompaniment is good too. Thunderbird.

2. definitely.

It takes a few days to "train" its spam-filters, but once they're trained they catch about 95% of it.

3. I am really enjoying Firefox, which my husband convinced me
to start using after a nasty virus snuck in on Microsoft Imploder

4. Opera is another good alternative to Internet Exploder
www.opera.com

Mouse gestures, tabbed browsing, popup blocking, built-in notes, chat, email client and much, much more!

5. I've used it for about 6 months
I've never looked back. It's wonderful.

8. Yeppers, just switched
My only complaint is the link to my Kerry site is no longer active, for me anyway.

But I love the anti-popup aspect. Better than popup stopper.

Once in a while, I use IE just because I don't have any plugins loaded into Modzilla, but I always end up having to run adaware to get rid of the spyware that ensues.
