I approach computer repairs conservatively. If it isnt broken, dont fix it.
I always wait before I upgrade browsers. You will know when it is time. You will either be required to upgrade by IE, or some webpages will no longer load properly.
I use Firefox primarily. If you like to customize your browsing experience, firefox is better hands down. The Addons are great.

It is smart to have a backup browser on your computer in case IE bombs permanently. You can use the backup to fix IE or just switch to it.

For that purpose I recommend Firefox portable, and plain Firefox in that order.
