Yep, I am also in these ranks, much before I started reading these forums.  At first I used Internet Explorer, until I heard about Mozilla.  I used it, loved it, and now Internet Explorer only remains for Windows Update page (And when coupled with Windows XP, you just can't remove IE.  I swear, every time I deleted that IEXPLORE application, it re-created itself 2 seconds later!).  Mozilla removes all the junk.  And my friend had unbelievable pop-up trouble, so for him Mozilla was a dream come true   

  .  If you are still using Internet Explorer, try Mozilla.  No, really, install it now.
