    Some of the features included with Firefox are tabbed browsing, spell checker, incremental find, live bookmarking, an integrated download manager, and a Google search box.

    Mozilla Foundation aimed to create a browser that “just surfs the web” and delivers the “best possible browsing experience to the widest possible set of people.”

    It is possible to customize Firefox with extensions (add-ons) and themes. Mozilla maintains an add-on repository at addons.mozilla.org with over 2000 add-ons.

    Firefox provides an environment for web developers in which they can use built-in tools, such as the Error Console or the DOM Inspector, or extensions, such as Firebug.

Review

This is simply the best web browser available. If you’re still using Internet Explorer, there’s absolutely no reason not to switch over.

My favourite feature is the endless tweaks and customizations. It seems like no matter what I want it to do, someone’s already thought of it and made and add-on for it.
