People always ask if Firefox is more secure than Internet Explorer. The answer is Yes, due to it not running ActiveX and not being the standard web browser on every windows PC. If you where trying to infect the greatest number of machines you would focus on the number one browser and try to expoit it, right?
We at pcULTRAcare.com recommend that people install and use firefox. IE of course will still be used because some sites (financial sites for instance) need to have access to activex and other addons in order to provide their pages and information to you. But for everyday surfing, especially when searching and going to unkown websites it is better to use firefox.
We have a page with a link to download Firefox.
