my laptop seemed too slow, so I uninstalled Firefox and tried Chrome, then uninstalled Chrome and got Firefox back, and upon checking for viruses I received a warning I had 5 viruses threatening my computer. I have never received that report before receiving either Firefox or Chrome or MSIE. I am now using Explorer, but I would rather have Firefox back.
