Firefox is a internet that blocks so many things that prevent viruses but they kind of over do it tho

My Firefox is being slowed down by all the ad links that are now "moving" ad links but there is no problem otherwise. My cheetah head looks fine.

i use various versions of firefox without any problems... it's probably one of your add-ons, try turning them off... or try reloading it

google chrome is one big virus

Run adblock and no script, allow only what you deem fit. Easiest way imo.

Firefox has been crashing my computer for a while now, and it always wants to update. So annoying, Chrome simply works better.

Adblock is good but it has its limits. Some website have found a way to post adds even with adblock active
