Mozilla Firefox
Published on October 30th, 2008 by admin. Filed under Free Software, Web Browser | No CommentsToday’s free software title up for review is Mozilla Firefox. Firefox is a free web browser like Microsoft Internet Explorer but much better. It has tons of add-ons and ways to customize it, but it is great just straight out of the box.
Description: Killer web browser
Compatibility: Linux, MacOs 10.4 and higher, Windows 2000, XP, Vista and Server 2003
Necessary Info: Firefox, like Internet Explorer and others before it, is a web browser. These days, web browsers are our window to the world and what you are reading this with.
There is currently a battle raging over which browser is going to be King. Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Internet Explorer are both fighting to become the king and Internet Explorer is losing ground. According to http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp, Firefox currently has approximately 42% of the browser market share while IE has approximately 51%. Yes there are others that take up the remaining 9%.
Firefox is an open source program and anybody can donate their time and/or effort to help the cause. And that is part of what makes Firefox so cool. You have a ton of add-on programs that you can use for purposes such as
- Blocking ads
- Checking SEO rankings
- FTP (File Transfer protocol)
- Download management
- Bookmark management
- Change the appearance
These are capabilities that Internet Explorer just doesn’t have.
Firefox is also more secure against spyware because it automatically tells you when there is an update so the program is almost always up to date and protecting you against the latest web vulnerabilities.
In short, Firefox is a great browser that is more customizable and more secure than the competition.
