I love the tabs i.e. if you want 5 different pages open at the same time in IE you have to have open 5 windows whilst in Firefox you can just have 1 window with 5 tabs. From what I've read its also more secure and faster. Cannot go into detail on the security side as I don't have indepth knowledge but I'm sure others on here will be able to expand on that point.
In terms of uninstalling I wouldn't see a problem, you could leave IE as your default browser if you really want whilst you try Firefox out. I put Opera on but preferred Firefox so I just uninstalled it.
It it just my connection or is the download from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/ knackered. Mine just keeps timing out. And the once ive managed to download it the file was corrupt.
Edit nm.. got it eventually. slowest download ever. Gonna have a play,

Not too sure if I like that theme tbh. Too much black for my liking!! Aquatint or Azerty are pretty cool.

Bit of a memory hog!
If you like tab browsing then you may like the new browser thats still in beta stage - Flock - been using it for a couple of months now, IMHO it is much better than firefox

The only problem I have with it , is that sometimes it can be a little resource hungry
Especially when you suddenly realise that the reason all the memory's being used is because you've got about 30 tabs open.
