    Firefox has tons of benefits over IE. This is mostly security features and pop-up blocker. Tabbed windows are an awesome feature as well .

    IE7 (soon to be released) has most of these features, but still has a major security issue. I've used the beta and it's not that bad.

    To my knowledge, IE7 will not have an adblocker plug-in.

    Firefox kills all ads, with adblock. That is one of the main reasons I use Firefox, besides the fact it's faster than IE (at loading webpages).

    Adblock is one of hundreds of extensions and themes for Firefox. IE is alright, and is required on certain websites (for the wysiwyg editor, and Windows Updates)

    I still use IE at THOSE sites, but use Firefox the rest of the time.
