t3mur Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 Firefox didn't just change the way i browse the internet, witch i have to do constantly, having to take care of few websites. But it also saved my personal life and finances! About a day ago i recived an email from "paypal" at the end it turned out that it wasnt paypal but some phishing thread. It looked just like paypal and would take a proffesional (if) to see the difference in the actual paypal site and that one. And they claimed that my paypal account had to be "updated" since the new year 2007 was on board. And most of it involved personal info and Credit card info! As i get my credit card out, my dear firefox FLASHES a warning message that this was all a fraud. I get tears in my eyes while typing this because i could have lost all of my money that i have piling up and given away my very personal info. Off-course i Stopped doing everything and took cople of screenshots, because i was so shocked! here is the screenshot: http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/2950/picture1ka2.png I love the internet. Especially with Firefox on board! So from the bottom of my heart, to everyone and i mean EVRYONE that has anything to do with creating firefox explorer, i would like to say THANK YOU!

Alucard! Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 I like that firefox is always up to date. Whenever a update comes it will ask u nicely that will u want to update now or later. And I do not have to worry about anything unlike IE 7! And what is da best is that it even runs faster! TRY TO OVERDO THAT GATES!!!
