- It's not made by Microsoft. Microsoft has acted in unethical ways and uses their dominance to move into new markets. I don't like that personally.
- Since it is not made by Microsoft, you will see less viruses targeted at your browser. Sometimes, it is better to be the little guy.
- Tabbed browsing. Instead of a new window you can have multiple tabs.
- Firefox blocks pop-up and pop-under windows automatically.
- It comes with a built-in Google toolbar.
- It's small and fast.
