What is the actual difference between the 2?

Well firefox is open-source. It isn't integrated in windows so it can do much less damage to your compy then explorer can. You have much more control over your preferences.

And most of all you can install add-ons, some of the most popular being fasterfox wich basicly sends more page requests to the server so you can load pages faster, another one is called ABP wich doesn't load the adds on ALL web pages, it comes loaded with a database of adds and doesn't allow their loading, it also allows you to add your personal adds for adds from site you visit regularly but that it doesn't have in it's database. I don't find fasterfox makes a huge difference exept sometimes pages need reloading as the page doesn't come up entirely. But ABP makes a really nice difference :)

EDIT forgot to mention there are tons of other add-ons, wich makes the strenght of firefox.

IE, I've never really found anything wrong with it, I don't notice the browser I'm using, just the websites I'm on!

I've always had the general impression in the back of my mind that Firefox is meant to be better, but I've never seen the point of complicating my life by messing around with other browsers. I'm reasonably computer-literate as well.
