The Bottom Line IE 7 was Microsoft's one chance to leapfrog ahead of the competition, but the company has only barely caught sight of the current front-runners. For more features and greater security, switch to Mozilla Firefox. If only for the speed, lightness of being, and security alone, Firefox remains our Editors' Choice for best Internet browser. Microsoft's release should retain its browser base but doesn't yet have enough to lure loyal Firefox users back to Internet Explorer. Firefox's tabbed browsing, RSS support, security features, and overall cool factor make it more attractive than Internet Explorer.
