Both Firefox and Google Chrome are free, and either is less susceptible to catching viruses. After a couple of bad incidents with Microsoft Explorer, I only use those two.

Re: UFO IN THE DESERT SKY
Yep, they still launch rawinsonde balloons every 12 hours at the designated sites. In addition, several sites also launch the really big, very high altitude balloons to carry near-space payloads. White Sands, and a site near Palestine in TX are the big sources of these.
