I've used Mozilla Firefox for months now. I would never go back. There are many more features in than Internet Explorer. Microsoft have much catching up to do.
With Firefox you can download extensions which add extra functionality. There is tabbed browsing, so no need to have mutiple windows open, just one window contains all pages you're viewing. There is a built in popup blocker and much more. Just search the net and you'll find plenty of information about and why it's better than Internet Explorer.

I keep getting calls from friends with various browser problems, including hijackings. I have found the best way is to stop using Internet explorer completely except for tasks requiring access to the Micro$oft web sites.
You will improve you machines performance and security by installing and using one of the alternative browsers available, My personal favourite is OPERA (www.opera.com) Which is fully customisable and comes with an email client included,(many of the worms and viruses have targeted Outlook Express) also included is a download manager, it really is a far more powerful tool than anything Micro$oft have come up with. You can even create a "personal bar" with shortcut buttons straight to your favourite sites (like Grumbletext) and it has many different search options that you can include, all this is in ONE DOWNLOAD, no add ons (which is where the spyware and other nastys are usually imported) They also take your security very seriously, unlike micro$oft who prefer the public not to be told when yet another hole is discovered in thier software I have also had good results using FIREFOX. Internet explorer is slow and insecure, which is why so much malware targets it, in the U.S. the Dept of Homeland security has stated that people should switch to more secure clients. Change browsers, it really will improve your experience online. Its your machine, its time you took back control of it!
This complaint is to make public a criminal who is hiding in Staunton, Virginia. The criminal's name is Robert Kirchman. Robert Kirchman operates a criminal enterprise with several people...
1. Pamela Kirchman , Staunton, Virginia
This is Robert Kirchman's wife, she aides in Robert Kirchman's fraudulent operations.
2. Ed Magedson, Arizona
Ed Magedson runs scam sites with Robert Kirchman, they actually have 2 sites:
www.ripoffreport.com
http://scamfighters.blogspot.com/
As I understand after speaking with the FBI and an assistant Attorney General, Robert Kirchman operates three types of scams:
1. Robert Kirchman Scam #1
Robert Kirchman has setup a architectural design firm...but here's the catch..it's all a facade! There is no real firm just lies. The company I work for, was searching for an architectural design firm...Robert Kirchman's fake firm (unluckily for us) was chosen. Robert Kirchman sent our company some work he had done so that we could evaluate his work, we posted the work on our website and lo and behold a few weeks later we get called by a young architect who had created the art work! He had found our site because of the pictures names on the internet....we called Robert Kirchman and he denied it, claimed it was his work and then had the gall to try to charge us a few thousand dollars!! So this is the scam #1, Robert Kirchman steals from others and tries to sell material that never belonged to him.
2. Robert Kirchman Scam #2
While Robert Kirchman was trying to sell our company on bogus work, he was also speaking to one of the upper managers, he was trying to get our firm to invest $100,000 in some project based in Japan....well after some research on the internet I have found other people who were approached by Robert Kirchman for the same scam! There is no project in Japan, only Robert Kirchman's wallet ready for innocent people. This is a major scam. After my research, we decided to call the FBI to report this criminal...this is the breakdown from the FBI email:
Robert Kirchman has been operating a scam which we think has defrauded people over severak million dollars. He has just recently showed up on our radar screen, in the last couple months we have recieved about 10 complaints about Robert Kirchman, all similar in nature. We are currently investigating Robert Kirchman for money laundering and fraud, as well, the IRS is investigating him for tax evasion....
Luckily for my company, not one cent was given to this criminal.
3. Robert Kirchman Scam #3
The third scam I know of is operating scam sites which try to extort money from companies.
It seems that in this scam he is not alone, but that he operates with another criminal known as Ed Magedson.
What Robert Kirchman and Ed Magedson do is post negative information on companies, they then contact these companies and tell them that the will remove the negative information for thousands of dollars, sometimes tens of thousands of dollars!
The first site that I know of is run by Ed Magedson: www.ripoffreport.com
The second site which seems to be run by Robert Kirchman is : http://scamfighters.blogspot.com/
Robert Kirchman and Pamela Kirchman deserve to go to jail! I do believe that these criminals will be put behind bars soon, if you know of any information in regards to Robert Kirchman please report it to the FBI.
