@ kerushiiai:
you can search new themes for mozilla firfox here ^^
I have a different style myself...it's called iFox smooth, and I think it's cool 
to the problem with opening links people sent you in firefox...
when someone sends me a link in MSN, it automatically opens in firefox, but I don't know where you can change this...I looked through all the option menues, but I couldn't find anything about it... 
and I also didn't find options about opening links in ICQ...
so...I'm sorry, but I can't help you with this problem 
@ tsukiko:
when you look for the options of your firfox browser (under extras), you can proof if firefox is your default browser, and I think if firefox isn't it, you can set firefox as default browser there... 
(I hope the descriptions help you, because on my computer all menues are on german, and I don't know the exact english translations ^^°) |

@ tsukiko and yunchen
Haha, I'll translate for you yunchen: go into: Tools > Options > Main > System Defaults then check off "Always check to see if Firefox is the default browser on startup". That should do fine; after that click the button on the right, "Check Now" to verify.
I just installed Firefox 2.0 and it's just more of what I like about Firefox. The only big differences I've noticed are slicker looking tabs, underlined spelling errors while I type, and more build-in extension. Actually, they don't use the word extension anymore; they combine themes and extension and group them as "Add-ons" under Tools. I'm using the Qute 3.2.2 Theme. |

I usually use Firefox, though occaisionally I'll use Safari. I think Internet Explorer needs to die  |

| I've always been using IE ever since. But I know Firefox is better, I should try it one day right, better speed am I right? Do I have to do any technical work or anything? Because I don't really know about that stuff. |

^ No installation is pretty simple w/ the Firefox. Once you have it installed it's pretty easy to get the hang of too.
I tried it but I didn't really like so I'm still using IE (the newest version). I know most people hate it but it works fine for me
I really don't understand why so many people hate it. It's just a computer program. |

Firefox because it pwns Internet Explorer and Opera at the same time 
tabs, and better security =] Also, I think it's faster |

Safari with some add ons from http://www.pimpmysafari.com. Also Firefox occasionally because it has some cool extensions like downthemall and for flash heavy sites I still use IE  |

I use both IE and Firefox. But I often use Firefox. XD
I tried using Opera once back then when my IE broke and I had hard time using it cuz it was so slow. >< I dunno if it's the browser's fault or just our connection.  |
