Internet Explorer 7 vs Firefox 2

JUDGES: Peter Butler, Rafe Needleman, and Elsa Wenzel

For years, Microsoft Internet Explorer has enjoyed near dominance of the Web browser space--but not any more. Since the release last year of Mozilla Firefox 1.5, Firefox has been steadily eroding Internet Explorer's claim of superiority. According to information from NetApplications.com, in October 2004 Internet Explorer had 92 percent of the market; in September 2005 that dropped to 86 percent; and as of September 2006 Internet Explorer's market share dropped to 82 percent, with Firefox's rising to 12.5 percent. In two years Microsoft ceded 10 percent of its audience to its competition.

So how do the latest versions of each browser compare? For this prizefight, we looked at Microsoft Internet Explorer 7, Microsoft's first new Internet browser since 2001, and Mozilla Firefox 2, Mozilla's update of its popular Firefox 1.5 browser released in November 2005. I've already had my two cents' in the above reviews, so I've turned over this prizefight to my colleagues at CNET who specifically cover the Web services beat.

dah baca... semua orang ada pendapat masing2... tapi yg paling penting bukan pendapat orang.. tetapi keselesaan kita sendiri dlm menggunakan sebarang browser pilihan kita.. so.. kalau suka ff, guna ff, kalau suka ie, guna ie dan kalau suka opera.. guna opera..

bagi aku sendiri aku dah guna ie, opera, ff, avant, maxthon, dan pilihan aku ialah ff 2

paler kembang

aku guna dua-dua sekali... sbb ada kalanya sesuatu file tu tak boleh download thru firefox, jadi cuba dgn IE menjadi...

bzzts

Internet Explorer ada active-X yg kontrol aplikasi tertentu.
contoh nya kalu guna mcafee antivirus, korang perlu update/register guna komponen IE+active-X.
kalo IE corrupt atau takde langsung jgn harap le nk update antivirus tu...
