Another browser than IE

I want to be able to open 2 Yahoo e-mail accounts at the same time and I understand that I can use another browser other than IE so I can do that.

What browser would you recommend and would there be any complications/conflicts with IE.

Only one good answer - It has its own directory for cookies also so you can open one account in IE and one in FF - The only thing to watch for is the pop up question as to which will be the default browser. Make the selection as to the one you want and then select not to ask anymore. If you goof and pick the wrong one you can undo it in the options menu.

I thought Firefox would be the answer. I'll probably fall in love with it and never go back to IE. I've heard a lot of good things about Firefox.

Thanks for the post.

well Firefox if you want an all around good web browser, however Flock and SeaMonkey are pretty good too. Mosaic is good as long as you don't go to sites that have a lot of HTML. Pretty much anything other than Internet Explorer is good (even NetCaptor, but just barely good for NetCaptor).

Speaking of other browsers ...

Opera
Safari
Maxthon
Avant Browser
Advanced Browser
Ace Explorer
Lively Browser
TheWorld Browser
Element Browser
Polstergeist Browser
JamesZhu Internet Browser
Runecats Explorer
... and there are more.

With so many variations ... I still think you'll most likely prefer FireFox as an IE alternative.

How many of those are just IE shells though? Although if they run in different processes, they should have independent session data.
