    Firefox Myths

    mywebpages.comcast.net/SupportCD/FirefoxMyths.html

    Myth – “Firefox is Bug Free”
    Reality – Firefox is like any other software application and has plenty of bugs and problems.

    Myth – “Firefox is the Fastest Web Browser”
    Reality – Opera (now 100% Ad free) is the fastest Graphical Web Browser in Windows.

    Myth – “Firefox is Faster than Internet Explorer 7”
    Reality – Internet Explorer 7 is clearly faster than Firefox 1.x and 2.x in 4 out of 7 measures of performance.

    Myth – “Firefox Gained 25% Market Share in May 2007”
    Reality – “Firefox lost Market Share in May 2007, dropping below 15% while Internet Explorer and Safari gained.”

    Myth – “Firefox is the Most Secure Web Browser”
    Reality – Opera is currently the most Secure Graphical Web Browser in Windows.

    Myth – “Firefox is Secure”
    Reality – Firefox is anything but Secure with multiple unpatched vulnerabilities allowing exposure of sensitive data to local users. You only need one vulnerability to be insecure. Since Firefox v1.x was released, users have been exposed to over 295 security vulnerabilities and counting.

    Don’t dogg me for saying that website is unreliable. It provides reliable source for you to investigate the real claim against Firefox.

    Oh and fyi, I’m now an Opera user. You guys can try out the new beta build that has increased compatibility.

    I still ike FFF better. Like the graphical look of it, and I still find it safer then IE.

    It doesnt matter what these “Facts” tell us. Reality is a Democracy. If everybody THINKS Firefox is better, then it is.

    Myth – “Firefox is Faster than Internet Explorer 7″
    Reality – Internet Explorer 7 is clearly faster than Firefox 1.x and 2.x in 4 out of 7 measures of performance.

    Thats a bit vague. Are you saying that IE 7.0 is faster then Firefox 1.0? Well duh. and 4 our of 7 is not that convincing. I wouldnt trust my doctor with that kind of odds.

    Myth – “Firefox 1.x is more Secure than Internet Explorer 6”
    Reality – Internet Explorer 6 has been more secure than Firefox 1.x in 2006.

    Firefox 1.x (2006) – 13 Advisories = 88 Vulnerabilities
    Internet Explorer 6.x (2006) – 16 Advisories = 36 Vulnerabilities

    Myth – “Firefox Vulnerabilities are Quickly Patched”
    Reality – Multiple vulnerabilities have remained unpatched for a long time.

    SA12403 – Unpatched since 08-30-2004
    SA12580 – Unpatched since 09-18-2004
    SA20442 – Unpatched since 06-06-2006
    SA23046 – Unpatched since 11-22-2006
    and more…

    Myth – “Firefox 2’s Phishing Protection is better than Internet Explorer 7”
    Reality – “Internet Explorer 7’s Phishing Filter finished at the top of 3Sharp’s list as most accurate anti-phishing technology, catching nearly 9 out of 10 phishing sites while generating no warning or block errors on the 500 legitimate websites tested.”

    Reality is a Democracy. If everybody THINKS Firefox is better, then it is.

    Firefox is slower (rendering and startup), buggier, and more insecure than Opera and perhaps IE7 will ever be. There are numerous websites out there that proves that fact. Why on earth do you want to stick with a clearly inferior product? HIVEMIND?

    Thats a bit vague. Are you saying that IE 7.0 is faster then Firefox 1.0? Well duh. and 4 our of 7 is not that convincing. I wouldnt trust my doctor with that kind of odds.

    The fact here isn’t that IE7 clearly blows Firefox out of the dust. It just dispels the myth that Firefox is the fastest browser on this planet. Clearly it isn’t, in fact, IE7 is marginally better than Firefox in terms of overall performance.

    Why y’all gotta be hatin’ on the ‘Fox?…

    I use IE (not really), Opera (for speed) and firefox (for flexibility). And it’s not perfect by any means. I simply take the necessary steps to mitigate it’s flaws. Thing is, Firefox just has a whole lot more flexibility than either IE or Opera has to offer…

    Diabeetus/Iddq, I had a shred of doubt that you might not actually be a sock puppet, but you’ve made the most half-assed effort ever at concealing your identity. Now you’re copying and pasting, just like 95% of Iddq’s posts?

    My god you’re pathetic.

    Fuck Firefox.

    I can’t really see how 3-5 seconds startup time in a freshly installed IE7/Opera 9.24 is faster than a below 1 second startup time for Fx3…

    Security is more often breached because of the user rather than the browser.

    “Clearly it isn’t”
    Right, because running a whole 7 tests really gives you good statistics…
