No too sound like a smart ars but firefox has not been around since 1999. I believe the options at that time were IE, Netscape Communicator, Mosaic and some other not so very well know browsers. The speed tests that you are going to will measure your speed from your particular location via your IP addy to there location and that is usually done with a ping. When I was on road runner I would run those tests and 99% of the time I would get something different from one minute to another. Have you ever noticed that the net is a little slower after work then it is during the day ??? That is because congestion due to increased traffic on the internet not your connection. I personally use Mozilla because I do not like the firefox layout. I think that any browswer is better than IE due to the security issues with IE not the speed. Yes firefox has less bloatware that what IE but with a few IE tweaks ( increasing your cache ) IE can be easily made just as fast or faster than firefox. The problem with using any browser besides IE is page rendering but that is another topic for another day. Scott
