Review summary	Unless your business has specific ActiveX technology needs, you are much more secure running Firefox than Internet Explorer.	If you're only after speed, try Safari but keep your other browser, too. Try Camino if you crave advanced settings.	Mozilla Firefox 2 is a winner, beating Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 on security, features, and overall cool factor and deserving our Editors' Choice award.	If only for the speed, lightness of being, and security alone, Firefox remains our Editors' Choice for best Internet browser.
