Hey mittens. Whats a FUD ?
Fear, uncertainty and doubt. Basically, the idea of using people's fear to profit or benefit from. Often used in politics and sometimes in info security to get $$$$ from management (e.g., "Oh look how much it cost businesses to defend against viruses this year. You could lose this much too if you don't get the latest super-duper-special fangled Wadget Watcher!".)

Aye, Firefox is good stuff. I burned it to a cd and pretty much put it on anyone's machine who is having pop up problems. Most clients I put it on don't even see much of a difference between it and IE as far as functionality goes. Welll, except they say it's fast and they haven't had any pop ups, adware, or browser hijacking. Sorry if I sound like and advertisement for Mozilla Firefox but I haven't had any problems with it yet... Here's the link.
