    I'll be the first to admit I am not much of a computer guru. My computers as of the last few months have been terribly slow when accessing the internet.

    With all the talk of possible hacking of Internet Explorer I downloaded Firefox to use instead of Internet Explorer. It was simple, it transferred all my bookmarks and most importantly it is greasy fast. :D

    I should have done this months ago instead of just procrastinating about it. Who says an old dog can't learn a new trick.

    Just wanted to share this with you all in case you too have had issues with slow internet access.

    I hope this helps.

    "Internet Explorer IS a virus!"

    IMO Firefox is better than I.E. I use Chrome and Firefox, check out their browser extensions. There is some useful stuff.
