There is no way to say really... because the dll files required for IE to run are already running in the background... that is why it seems to load faster when you first open it compared to mozilla.

Mozilla is actually faster loading pages, you are more secure, and you can actually decide what do you wnat it to do... it even has an excellent built in pop up blocker.

Mozilla Firebird has my vote all the way... when you compare the two on the task manager you see IE consuing about the same resources as Mozilla even though IE has some of its "charge" in another components that are already running.

Along the same lines... if you use an e-mail client... use Thunderbird.

I'm pretty hooked on associating favicons/.ico files with my favorites in IE
I'm assuming either M.F. or Opera don't accept favicons as they were designed for IE.
Will I at least be able to export my favorites to either browser?

The first time you run mozilla it will read and import all the bookmarks you have in IE... Mozilla actually has a better system in my opinion to manage the bookmarks.

Just one Bookmarks.html not 3875 shortcuts...
