| Review summary | We like Netscape 8's customization features and its emphasis on security; however, we wish this new version included the native RSS support found in Apple Safari RSS. | 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. | CNET editor's take | Mozilla Firefox 2 is a winner, beating Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 on security, features, and overall cool factor and deserving our Editors' Choice award. |
