If it's between Firefox and IE, go for Firefox
If it's between Firefox and Opera, it's your personal preference.

Bon Echo
It's basically Firefox 2 but it has some nice additions. The best thing is the spell checker in forms, so now I have no excuse for misspelling anything in a post. It is also much easier to add search engines to the search bar at the top. All I have to do now is wait for more extensions to get ported over.

It looks like that site has a plot to load your comp with spyware

No other reason not to support Firefox...

Not for firefox, but for windows:

Try:
AVG antivirus
ZoneAlarm (free version)
AdAware
Spybot Search and destroy


All of those are free.
