So, what web browser are you guys browsing with? Also miscellaneous discussion about web browsers here.

I've been Firefox user since found it years ago. Add-ons and all make it just perfect.

I used Google Chrome since it's first release until January, since that I've been using Firefox.

I changed because of Firefox's larger modifiability :cool2:

I've used Chrome since it came out. At that point, my Firefox was totally broken and Safari took far too long to load. And IE sucked.

Somehow I think Firefox will dominate this since the forums are filled with finnish people, and Firefox is now installed in about a half of the computers in Finland. :mrgreen:
And yeah, I use Firefox too, because of the modifiability.
I use Chrome every now and then, when Firefox decides to be a pain and won't work too well..

Usually Firefox, but sometimes IE (which I really don't get all the hate for)... actually Firefox has been a bit unstable and slow for me lately... although maybe it's just because of my huge number of tabs... :eyes:

I used Internet Explorer when I use internet cafe for the first time, but now I used Firefox. Opera is also a decent browser. These two browser are my faves, depending on the condition.

Mostly I use Firefox, but when Firefox has problems, I use Opera.
Y'all, I just woke up... what did I miss?

Everything like Opera and Safari sucks, I've tested them and they are worse than IE.
I use Mozilla Firefox, because its fast and I just like the toolbars and that kind of things.

I'm currently switching between both IE and Chrome. I've worked with Firefox as well but I didn't like it at all.

Firefox, because I like to customize my PC/OS (and my Browser). And there are great addons.

Oh yeah and Mozilla has very good add-ons like Adblock Plus. It can block ads :D

Opera browser is the best for me...using it for many years now (sometimes also Firefox).
First found it interesting to use mouse gestures so that was my first reason to change many years ago from IE to Opera.
I also like that everything I need is already installed with Opera. For Firefox in my opinion you first need to download so many things to make it a good browser. Well, just recently Opera was announced to be the fastest browser. Thats also important. Actually the Opera guys often implement new features first before others copy them.
I also like Opera Link where I can synchronize my links automatically on every PC or mobile I am using Opera. Opera Turbo is also a nice feature when I am online with a slow connection like an USB Surfstick and I just discovered Opera Unite. Well, no more details. Dont wanna do too much advertising...in fact I like to use a browser that is not that common. That way I think I am a bit more protected of viruses and worms as it would have much more effect for a hacker to create something for IE or Firefox...
