FirefoxIE - Internet Explorer with Tab Browsing?!
Filed in: Mozilla — May 15th, 2005
Yes, this is Firefox screenshot!
FirefoxIE is a customization of Firefox 1.0 by Mozilla.org to make it look and feel more like Internet Explorer.
[ FirefoxIE ]
Thought:
Great to install for those diehard IE users, probably they don’t even know they are using Firefox and surprise to found that “IE” has tab browsing! 
However, this FirefoxIE is not come in a installation pack. You need to MANUALLY modify current Firefox to make it looks like IE. It took seven steps and quite troublesome…

There has already been a browser that has the same capabilities as Firefox a long time ago. It’s called Maxthon…formerly named MyIE2. Its got everything you need, popup blockers, tabbed browsing, skins, mouse gestures.
It’s pretty nifty.

@Edrei: Ya, I know Maxthon. I was MyIE2 fan before Firefox. Maxthon still use IE core, though it is much better than IE.

firefox is overrated. IE is pretty safe by itself and is more stable for web browsing….provided you know how to tweak the settings….

@Sexythang: yes, we can have safe browsing on IE too. But how many users know about “safe browsing”?

I dun agree with Kahsoon, even the most secure open operating system as Linux uses Firefox as their default browser.

I prefer IE than Firefox, firefox have some problem with securities (cheating) & have a problem with a certain website. IE 6 is sucks. IE 5.5 is better than 6. And one more, MyIE2 have a problem when surfing some website too.
p/s: i try all kind web browser to suite with my website
