glad to hear it! welcome to the boards.
btw, try out mozilla as well, from mozilla.org
the thing with mozilla (and linux, and most GNU and open source software) is that you might get a version with a hideous bug that you hate! you may have to download one or two consecutive versions of mozilla to get one you like. Compare that with internet exploder, where you can get one version that's full of bugs, you're stuck with it for a year, and then they release a new version with even more bugs! great!
