I need a little help understanding this. *I hear all sorts of bad things

I am not fond of some things my computer does, like: taking me to Bing,
where it is impossible to find the article you went there for; taking a long
time up to forever to download some stories and videos, redirecting, etc.

Will downloading Firefox improve my computer life? *Do I have to uninstall
IE, and will my computer allow itself to be castrated thusly? *Is there a
lot of configuring to do afterward? *Do I have to get rid of OE, and
download a new news program, or does the installation of Firefox fix all
that? *I am somewhat handy on computers, but not sure about setting the
things behind the curtain.

Advice appreciated on selecting a browser, news reader, and general computer
setup to make my computing life a little smoother.

Thanks.

Steve

What is the reason you don't ask your computer related questions in a
forum that has nothing but computer geeks / computer experts in it?

This is the best forum I know of:
