Firefox is an open-source browser supported by a large community of software developers. It's less bulky and is popular for its innovative extensions and add-ins. Moreover, it is considered to be  the most secure browser than IE or any other browser. In terms of usage IE may be ahead of Firefox because it is bundled with its Windows software. However, in terms of popularity and rate of growth, Firefox is far ahead of IE.

Srinivas Ji i agree with you.I also personally prefer Firefox over Internet Explorer because in Firefox when you open web page for the first time, it gives you a very nice impression. Colors are very well organized; whole interface is not messed up with no need stuff. In the left there is very catchy “Download Firefox – Free” text/button so everyone will understand that this web browser is free and there are other advantages as well like there are no validation errors & its possible to change language in firefox.

So yes Firefox is in a strong position with its rival IE.

The IE share is just because of Micro$oft packaging with its Operating System. But Firefox is far ahead with its security and standard compliance. Themes and extensions are something that keeps you tied to the Fox.

1. Open source

2. Easy extensibility  with hundreds of plugins (webdeveloper, firebug,..)

3. Always standards compliant

4. Always adopting new standards and technologies quickly (CSS3, SVG, etc)

5. Secure - no automatic installation, no activex

I prefer Firefox because it is more secure and so much easier to customize than IE.
