Firefox comes installed in Ubuntu linux 5.10 by default. If you install the normal Ubuntu with the Gnome desktop, the earth logo on the top toolbar opens firefox. You can also get there by using ‘applications->Internet’.
The nice thing about Firefox is that it works the same in Linux as it does on Windows. Also the skins and extensions aren’t platform specific – so if you were used to certain ones in Windows, you should be able to install them all right here in Linux.
Firefox is very stable in Ubuntu – I haven’t had a single problem with it. Be sure to read the extensions thread – Firefox is best when customized just for you and the ways you work the web!
