Jayson, you're not a bad person for not using FF and using IE instead! But I will say that IE6 has been known to be slower and more susceptible to viruses. FF2 is much safer than IE6. IE7 is more secure than IE6 though so I do encourage you to at least upgrade IE. But I still like FF better. Ha! Jayson, you’re not a bad person for not using FF and using IE instead!

I've always had the full Outlook through work, but it seems they are great programs. I tried the Foxit Reader once and it backfired. maybe I'll give it another shot.

If I may offer a bit of contradictory, but hopefully helpful, advice of my own. Adobe Acrobat Reader - Avoid it if you can! Admittedly I still use it most of the time -- even though I hate it -- but it might be worth trying the more nimble <a href="http://www.download.com/Foxit-PDF-Reader/3000-2079_4-10585104.html?tag=lst-0-8" rel="nofollow">FoxIt reader</a>.
