Bill, thanks for the post!

I stopped using Microsoft's Internet Explorer a long time ago. Most of the adware, spyware, virus's etc are written so that they use IE as a means of invading your computer...

For almost 2 years I've used Mozilla FireFox as a web browser. It has neat little add-ons, available for free, that give you more functionality but non are needed at all. I have multiple tabs open so that I can be on several sites simultaneously, very handy indeed. FireFox also comes with its own built in spell checker that's a breeze to use...

Since I began using Mozilla ForeFox I've cut down on virus intrusion by 95% and adware and spyware have all but been eliminated...

It's free and if you're curious follow the link below.

Mozilla FireFox

If you install it and don't like it just uninstall it and go back to using Microsoft's IE...

Darn! If I can read this and understand it which I can I won't bother correcting my posts for spelling anymore!

The one spelling mistake (actually, poor grasp of the english language) that bugs me the most is, "I seen"....

WHAT, you "seen"????

How about, "I SAW"?

I mostly get bugged by "I should of" instead of "I should have." This all goes back to a lack of real reading compared to phonetic spelling, especially now that we have the internet and shortcut words and acronyms upon which to base our communications. And I have a teenager, so I should be considered an authority.
