Linux and firefox

by stugra65 . Updated 21 years ago

Is it possible to load linux as a second os on a computer to boot into and surf the web with a safer browser such as mozilla.
Would the combination of linux and mozilla mean the system would be less vulnerable to attacks which seem to be designed to exploit the flaws in windows and explorer.
Would the experience of the web be as good?
Is there a firewall with linux or any other protection it needs?
I undestand there are office type applications for loading on to linux. Can they open files created in microsoft applications and visa versa?
