摘要：Internet technology is one of the utmost inventions of our era and has contributed significantly in distributing and collecting data and information. Effectiveness and efficiency of the process depends on the performance of the web browser. Internet Explorer is the leader of the competitive browser market with Mozzilla Fox as its strongest rival, which has been and is gaining a substantial level of popularity among internet users. Choosing the superlative web browser is a difficult task due to the considerably large selection of browser programs and lack of tangible comparison data. This paper describes and compares vital features of Internet Explorer and Mozzilla Firefox, which represent over 90% of the browser market. The performance of each browser is evaluated based on the general features, operating system support, browser features, protocol support and language support. The paper is concluded with concrete remarks based on the comparison.
