I seem to be aiding friends and family with frequency these days to help them get malware, adware, spyware off of their computers. (Common symtoms are pop-ups, hijacked home page, slow or sluggish computer).

I keep hearing mention of not using the IE browser to avoid getting spyware on your computer. One particular browser deemed very safe, and I can see by my stats is gaining in popularity is FIREFOX.

By the way, anyone using FIREFOX, get all the latest Add-Ons, HERE . There you can find anything from a bandwidth tester, Dictionary Search, or the old game, PONG! :)

I’m actually a fan of IE, but I now use Firefox as my preferred browser. Here’s a couple of my favorite Firefox tips:

First, if you hold the CTRL-key down when you click a link, it opens that page in a new tab. Nice when you want to keep both pages open.

Second, you can configure Firefox to open many pages at once. You can use this to check a bunch of different websites very quickly. I use this to keep tabs on my own websites, my revenue, my webmail, etc. Just setup a tab for each website, then save go to Tools > Options > General and click the “Use current pages” button to set the entire set of sites as your “homepage.” When you startup Firefox, all the sites will open for you.
