For those looking for an alternative to the bloated IE browser and the perpetually broken netscape, I highly recommend Mozzilla Firefox. Works much like IE but without the ongoing security holes, its free, small in size and has some really cool plugins, add-ons that are also free.

My favorite feature is being able to "tab" open windows for easier access and organization when I'm doing online research. Most highly recommended. You can find it at the following link:

I can't believe I forgot the best part! Firefox is FAST! You won't believe how fast until you try using it.

If you want to improve the speed of firefox, do the following:
Type "about:config" into your address bar, wait for it to load, then alter the following entries: change "network.http.pipelining" to "true", "network.http.proxy.pipelining" to "true", "browser.turbo.enabled" to "true" and lastly "network.http.pipelining.maxrequests" to 30, meaning it will be able to make 30 requests at once.
