I've been using Firefox now since I saw its release announced on slashdot. I think this browser now beats IE, and I've asked my parents to switch.

Better security, pop-up blocking, tabbed browsing are all good. The new download and bookmark managers are also nice.

The thing that clinches it for my folks, though, is the ability to change text size. CTRL+ and CTRL- increase and decrease text size regardless of CSS instructions for fixed font sizes. It sometimes looks ugly and breaks the layout, but at least they can read it.
