    That's a matter of opinion - it is certainly as good and, yes, it is free and should work with W98 AFAIK.

    Ask all questions regarding Firefox in the Netscape & Mozilla forum - moderated by Ramona - a fiery Firefox lady :D

    No - not the wrong forum for your question - I was just pointing you to our specialist forum for FireFox :)

    some people like a program called Opera which is big in Scandinavia and claims to be the innovator of much stuff.
    What you have to watch out for is alternative browsers that are really just built with explorer as their base and have the same security / spyware holes.

    I switched from IE7 to Firefox about a month ago. The features and add-ons are numerous and excellent. Firefox is also known to be much more secure than IE.
