Microsoft gives you a free browser. This is very nice. It is called Internet Explorer (IE).
One problem I have with IE is how much spy ware is delivered by just using it. I and you have an alternative. It is called Firefox.

You can get it at Firefox home page

Some pages don't look right in Firefox. That is OK. Since they have a plug-in that will allow you to view a certain page in Internet Explorer if you want!

Fire Fox is free!
