I do not think Firefox is faster than IE. There are more viruses to IE just because it's more popular and Firefox is pretty new. If FireFox occupies 80% of the market, who knows what will happen. It's nothing about ActiveX technology. There is nothing that is bulletproof.; a% P3 y7 w; d4 Q; x. _/ i

So just choose based on your own needs.
For whatever reason, Firefox should be safer, I am not saying faster though. But spyware/adware can make your computor very slow. Check you folder: 7 _- k' q5 T |+ Y9 u7 l9 N/ \+ b( O2 Q) {" _& p

All of them are just cookies. If you do not like the activeX, in XP, you can just disable it in the IE configuration.9 J0 J# V1 m5 Q. Z& s
