One more reason to switch to Firefox: the Adblock extension. This extension will block all the annoying banner ads and Flash thingies in a page. Benefits:

1. Pages load much faster
2. You save on bandwidth charges (if you pay your ISP by the byte)
3. You can contribute your mite to ensure that undeserving dotcoms go out of business faster
4. Plain aesthetics; spare yourself the pain of looking at sleazy graphics
