Bah, I'd especially recommend Firefox to novice users. It is much safer than IE, and tabbed browsing is great.

Besides, I'd think novice users not having Active X controls is a good thing.

Yeah, but Novice users want things to work.

When they go to a web page that has an ActiveX control they want to use, and it doesn't work, they'll get pissed, upset, frustrated, etc.

Yeah, instead of saying it's the browser's fault they end up just saying "My computer sucks". I hate when one part of a computer doesn't work (i.e. a browser) and they end up saying the whole computer has a problem. LOL. Just wanted to say that.

That's true, too.

Such as "My computer isn't working."
