IE is better than FireFox at rendering a small percentage of the sites on the Internet...I'll agree with you guys on that point...but in every other aspect, I find it much worse.
FireFox has Tabbed Browsing (which I can not live without), extensive Ad-Blocking features (I haven't seen an ad in months), and hundreds of other custom extensions, many of which I've installed.
I use FireFox for all browsing, and when I come across one of those rare pages that won't render properly, I simply right-click and select "View This Page in IE". I installed an extension so that when I need it, I can use IE...and meanwhile still have tabbed browsing, no ads, and not have to about getting adware and tracking cookies. The argument that we should use IE because it renders pages better is blown out of the water -- because now with extensions, viewing pages with IE is built into FireFox. With FF, you get the best of both worlds.
