Hi Alisha,

LOL re: your "Hack from Nowheresville" comment -- I felt the same way when I became a beat reporter.

I like both FireFox and Chrome. Chrome is faster, but it doesn't seem as stable on my computer. (It is actually supposed to be more stable and, being less popular, is less frequently attacked by hackers.) One reason I like both of them is that they are customizable via add-ons.

Opera isn't anywhere near as popular as the two I use, but it also has its following. The nice thing about browsers is that they are free -- you can always install one and try it out, and then uninstall it if you don't like it.

Edit: Kim Komando has a discussion comparing several browsers. You might find it helpful.

Joy,
Lynn
