I like Firefox a *lot*. I used Netscape for ages then Opera for about four years...but then Opera began sucking like a seriously sucky thing, so I switched a couplethree months ago.
It's fast to load (both the program and pages within the prog), is remarkably customizable, doesn't crash all the bloody time and the extensions (From the page:Extensions are small add-ons that add new functionality to your Mozilla program. They can add anything from a toolbar button to a completely new feature.) are marvelous.
It loads more pages without a problem than Opera ever did and, unless it's bought and becomes a sucky thing, I can't see the point of using something else.:)
Cons...there are some pages that refuse to load in Firefox, but that's more a problem with the page's designer than the browser. Sometimes it decides it needs *all* the resources, right now and gets huge, but it doesn't happen often and restarting the browser fixes the problem. And you have to restart it to see new skins or extensions.
