I'm contemplating the switch from IE to Firefox. I like
Firefox's pop-up blocking, low memory usage compared to
IE, etc. One thing that is stopping me is the fact that
Firefox doesn't have something like a Restricted Sites
zone like IE does.
I like the Restricted Sites zone in IE because it's a long
list of sites I've compiled so that these sites will not
be able to use cookies, ActiveX controls, Java applets,
scripting, unwanted pop-ups, auto-installing of unwanted
programs like spyware, etc.
I'm apprehensive to use Firefox because of this, although
I know I can disable certain things in Firefox (like Java,
and ActiveX isn't even supported).
Am I being too paranoid here or is there something Firefox
gives in return for the loss of my cherished list of
restricted sites?
