Firefox does not offer any sandbox technology like Chrome and IE's epm. Why do you use it?
Nikos.., Firefox allows users an enormous selection of well accepted extensions. Sandboxie www.sandboxie.com &, from what I've read on our site here, virtual box https://www.virtualbox.org/ can give the "fox" containment.;)
I moved to it in like September after Chrome messed up on me several times. In my opinion, it's faster than chrome, but very similar to Chrome besides the sandboxing feature
Jcwisgod, Chrome stumbled repeatedly for us too, back in February, and this opened me to trying Comodo Dragon which I find pleasantly quick.:) Firefox's form has remained the browser I've liked most!:D

because we run it into sandboxie :D ; note that Chrome's sandbox is for Flash only; not the whole content of your browsing (unless that changed)

I didn't know that, I thought it was for the wholew content. Thanks for the info!
So, if it's like that, we can say that IE 11 is safer than Chrome (without addons that restrict scripts etc, or sandboxie)?

Switched from chrome recently back to Firefox. Mainly because Chrome is slow when starting up on my system plus I noticed some addons not working as good as they could

Plus I simply needed a style change lol:D
