    cud u tell me...wat r the advantages of firefox over ie 7, other than "no ads" nd basic security?
  • Nasir · 2 years ago
    Here is the Firefox 2.xx preferences over IE:
    1-Small installation file

    2-You don't have to be a "GENUINE" user

    3-Firefox don't require reboot and much time for installation

    4-Its open source means constant improvement

    5-Both have the extension support but Firefox is the "Extension king" and IE cant compare with Firefox in this

    6-Firefox has better RSS feeds management options and have its own feed reader while IE don't



    Hope you get the point.

    Still don't satisfied with my answer? then do check the Cnet website

    Nice tweak. But it seems there is no need of this if you have lot of free system memory or you have excess amount of memory.
