A Great Browser
Tired of popups, spyware and spam? If you really want to make your computer more secure and have a better broswer, come here to download FireFox.
It's free and it's head and shoulders about Microsoft's Internet Explorer. Plus, the people who code viruses, spuware, mallware and spamware code it to infiltrate Internet Explorer because that's what most people unwittingly use. But the bad guys don't usually code for FireFox... not to mention, it's more secure...
Aside from that, my hands down favorite feature is Tabbed Broswing. You can have multiple tabs open within one browser window. It's so handy! Another great feature is one that allows you to block pictures and cookies (persistent peices of information that reside on your system) from the non-originating server. That means that you can block pictures from those pesky ad-servers and still see the content you want.
So say it once, say it again, the third time's the charm!!!
