Browser Review: Mozilla Firefox 3
By some estimates, more than 1.4 billion people use the Internet for work, entertainment, or commerce. All of those web surfers must use a browser to visit websites or shop at online stores, and if browsing speed, security, and functionality matter, those users should be cruising the information super highway with the Mozilla Firefox 3 web browser.
For years, Firefox, the second most used browser in the world, has been wrestling with Microsoft’s Internet Explorer (IE) for supremacy in a sort of Internet cold war. But last month, Google released the beta version of its Chrome browser. Google’s action was the first shot in a new, more heated browser war, so Practical eCommerce began a review of the coming battle’s superpowers—the top browsers.
What is clear is that Firefox is not slow. This browser’s users can expect a fast surfing experience, especially when compared to older versions of Internet Explorer (IE6 still accounts for 22 percent of browser use) that are considerably slower.
