Firefox Fanboys?

Is there anyone else that is tired of all these "Firefox fanboys" whose answer to any and every computer question is GET FIREFOX.

They are not only here but on every computer forum.

The truth is that Firefox is a highly over-rated browser:

Update:

Fewer popups with FF you say? When I use IE, I get none, zero , zlich. It's all in the configuration. I will agree, IE "out of the box" is a poor browser, but with a few minute work it can become a decent one

    It is a very good browser. I am not tired of firefox fanboys....

    The best part is I have much fewer popups and so on...

    It's not so much better than IE but it is a smaller target for maleware.

    Sounds like an answer only posers use. Truth is, FF is a great platform because it's; 1.Secure, 2. Plug-ins galore, 3. Really built for developers -- have mommy keep wipin your **** with IE. :) Cheers!
