IE, Netscape 7.02 and Opera 7.10. I try to use them all equally (don't ask me why, I'm just weird like that) but Opera is still way too buggy, so I'm waiting until those bloody Russians can get it together and provide a solid build.

Try out Opera and Phoenix or Mozilla. Big differences, not the least of which is being more secure than IE. |

MyIE2 here. I love everything about it... I tried Mozilla, but it never seems to display web pages correctly. And yes, I know that's the fault of the web page designers much more than the Mozilla programmers, but that doesn't fix the problem.

I'm just too lazy to install anything that doesn't come with the OS or can update itself (auto windows update)

I use Opera 7
I tried Mozilla, but the tabbed browsing isn't as good. It won't load a new page into a tab when you click it. Opera's mouse gestures are a lot better too. Whenever you go back and forth, it doesn't reload the page everytime which makes it much quicker. For pages with lots of pics (titty board) Opera sucks. It scrolls very choppy when loading the pics.

I use Mozilla at home and Firebird at work. I will never go back to IE after having the features of tabbed browsing and pop-up killers. I have trouble now and then with plug-ins but I have been very pleased with both. For those who have never used tabbed browsing: Try it, it will keep you forever. Dedicate a couple of days to getting used to it, and you will wonder how you ever used IE6. It will make both the internet and porn a whole new experience.

My first choice is Opera 6.05 (6.06b when I reinstall) with O7.11 a close second - mozilla is a very good backup and IE is banned from connecting to the internet in my firewall settings immediately after windows is installed.
I use Moz or Konqueror in linux normally |

I use opera. mozilla and IE...I like them all for different reasons.
I use IE for my default browser because it starts up quickly..it works with links like aim greetings, and yahoo mail. I use Opera when I plan on having alot of webpages open. And Mozilla is great for the add-ons you can install (spiderzilla, leech etc). I'm terrible at just sticking to one.

Opera has been my browser of choice since version 7 came out. It might look like a bloated mess when you first install it, but after some customizations and tweaking, its a very slick and speedy browser, much better than anything Microsoft can throw at it these days.

I just upgraded to Mozilla 1.4 and the download manager wasn't working so I got Firebird and am using that. I need to figure out an easy way to transfer my bookmarks though.
Also, when I access my own web page, it looks like some gophers made black tunnels across it...never had that problem before I updated to Moz 1.4. Very puzzling to me. |

Mozilla/Firebird has everything the competition has, and usually more. They only reason to ever not use it is if a site is made to only work with IE, and it's usually still possible even then, unless the site uses all sorts of propriety non-standard MS crap that any sensible browser cannot understand. In such cases, I will load up IE to view the page, but this happens very rarely as I have found that most websites that don't work with Mozilla aren't really worth looking at.

I use one called MyIE2. I think the tabbing on this is superior. Has pop-up blocker, mouse-gestures, just a ton of features. Never had a problem with it.
