Mozilla Vs Firefox ?????
I havent seen such a competetion.
Well now as you are tired of IE but still like IE use maxthon. Or if you want to try a different browser try opera. www.opera.com

it depends on ur needs. if u need a complete suite for web browsing and as an email client, then mozilla suite is the one for u .
well, i dont clearly know it myself, but i've seen some ppl saying that the mozilla suite is faster than firefox.

simply put, mozilla suite = firefox + thunderbird
or
firefox = mozila suite - email client

btw, i just use firefox, its my default browser :D

See Firefox has some features to make browsing better, like Live Bookmarks, a good find utility, more extensions, and more things ...

But mozilla is complete with a mail client and a html composer, plus it is just a bit faster than firefox (in terms of responsiveness, not browsing speed).

Use both, see which you like.

Oh and btw, you can use and number of browsers on your system, no need to remove IE :)

Don't forget to try out Opera too .... you may find it to be the best of both worlds.

Oh btw the browser battles your should have the poll btw Firefox and Internet Explorer. But then also Mozilla has no power to stand infront of Firefox... Opera is also good...

See *www.mozilla.org/products/mozilla1.x/

Look, dont ask which is the best as it will start a browser war here. If you want to know which is the best try them yourself. You can try Opera, Firefox, Maxthon. I have installed all the three and use them as i need.

phew! finally someone with a sensible answer! Mate all the 3 browsers are good and serve their own purposes. Use them and see which one best fits your needs. And its not like ur investing in a H/W where in you need so much advice. Browsers are soon becoming a personal choice. So try and see which one your most comfortable with.

The Mozilla 1.7.7 that you are referring to is the complete suite inclusive of the e-mail client, IRC client, HTML editor.

The latest version of the standalone browser is 1.0.3.

Firefox all the way for me.

Firefox beats the crap outta all the rest... hands down!

Good!

I know that very well. I was just answering that why he said it used to be. It is still present.

Please keep the discussion clean and free from flames/fanboyism otherwise we shall be forced to lock it.

By the way, the browser in the Mozilla suite is not the same as FF. They share code and the Gecko engine but they are not the same. Most notably, the interfaces are different.
