Version: Mozilla Firefox 1.5
"Best browser just got better!"
Pros: Improvements from earlier versions

-includes must-have features like tabbed browsing, pop-up blocking, and RSS
-built in search
-safe

-VERY customizable. The greatest reason i switched to using firefox was because of it's customizability. On addons.mozilla.org, you can download extensions and themes to make firefox look better and have more features. Extensions include the ability to block ads and adframes inside webpages, mouse gestures, and session saving. There's pretty much an extension for every function you could possibly need.
Cons: -Not all webpages are compatible with firefox that can only be loaded correctly in Internet Explorer. However, there is a pretty small amount of webpages like this. Also, extensions like ie tab, ieview, and user agent switcher that give firefox the ability to load internet explorer-only webpages. These can all be found on addons.mozilla.org

While your review of firefox is informative what impresses me even more is your replies to other people's questions and statements in other reviews. It is my impression that you genuinely want to imform the less knowledgable. This is laudable. Often times those who reply to reviews are overly harsh, egotistical, and arrogant. Whatever good they might have to say is lost in their style. I enjoy reading your reviews. Unlike so many who only put down a sentence or two in their reviews yours' have some substance. Others could learn from you. Keep up the good work!
