What web browser?
 
I am just curious as to what people use for browsing the web... I used to use IE6 but about 2 months ago switched over to Opera 7 for tabbed browsing. I actually prefer Opera now (with the IE6 skin :)). I just wanted to know what the people of TFP use...

philzilla 04-22-2003 05:04 PM

Safari

Krycheck 04-22-2003 05:10 PM

Opera 7.0 for Windows
Pheonix (Mozilla) for Linux

Opera 7.0beta for linux is too crappy looking to even try.

rubicon 04-22-2003 05:26 PM

I use IE 6 because it's bundled with Windows. I hate having multiple copies of that same type of software on my PC so I'll make due with IE. I've got it pretty well locked down compared to the default install.

I'd probably use Safari on the Mac if I bothered to spend the 10.3 upgrade money.

As for Linux, prob go with a flavor of Mozilla because that's what people tell me to use. :)

cheerios 04-22-2003 05:32 PM

safari & omniweb in conjunction w/ an old release of Camino for the random thing that won't load elsewhere.

The_Dude 04-22-2003 06:00 PM

ie all the way

saberyo 04-22-2003 06:08 PM

mozilla (the stable release, but only if nightly builds are too scary)

"Find text as you type /"
"Find links as you type '"
tabbed browsing, i could go on...

good.

chodarama 04-22-2003 06:10 PM

mozilla!

xanthar 04-22-2003 06:14 PM

phoenix (mozilla) for all of my computers, windows and linux

Quadraton 04-22-2003 06:17 PM

I alternate between Netscape 7.0 and Internet Explorer 6. It depends on where I'm surfing. I prefer to work with Netscape, but it just seems like there are times when Internet Explorer works better.

K-Billy 04-22-2003 06:30 PM

I almost always use Phoenix (aka Firebird) but occassionally I'll use IE.

skinnedmink 04-22-2003 06:41 PM

Phoenix nightly build. LOVE IT.

Johnny Rotten 04-22-2003 06:45 PM

I switch between Mozilla and Phoenix/Firebird. Mozilla is much more stable, for now.

labob 04-22-2003 06:53 PM

Mozilla/Phoenix (Firebird)

I've never been happier with a browser.

SecretMethod70 04-22-2003 06:59 PM

Konqueror most of the time in Linux, sometimes Mozilla/Phoenix/Firebird

Mozilla/Phoenix/Firebird always in Windows

tobasco 04-22-2003 10:21 PM

i was wondering the exact thing recently. i use ie normally but i just started playing with mozilla/firebird (aka phoenix)/k-meleon .. so far there's not much pulling me away from ie.

cub4life78 04-22-2003 11:34 PM

I really liked IE6 but I started getting nothing but red x's where pics used to be so I switched to firebird which was just too slow in my opinion, now I am using opera and like it waaaay better than any of them.

KillerYoda 04-22-2003 11:38 PM

I use IE6 cause I'm too lazy to download something else.

Ghost Bladder 04-23-2003 01:10 AM

Konqueror or Mozilla

IE

Grondar 04-23-2003 04:34 AM

I love Opera, but am also giving Mozilla and Firebird a shot.

It wil be hard to pull me away from Opera though, as it just seems to have a lot of great features, tabbed browsing, and I love the mouse gestures.

Nad Adam 04-23-2003 04:54 AM

I wanted to use Pheonix but it didn't work with my internet bank so I use IE.

DonnChadh 04-23-2003 05:17 AM

Opera

and occasionally IE for the odd site that refuses to display in Opera

ataylor20 04-23-2003 06:01 AM

Well Im going to download Mozilla today and give it a try. I hope its as good as everyone says! I hear it doesnt have as many popups! That would be great!

alpha phi 04-23-2003 06:16 AM

Phoenix or IE depends on tyre of surfing
I love the tabs in Phoenix
IE works better for picture posts

Mad_Gecko 04-23-2003 10:49 AM

Recent 'zilla convert.

/now despise IE

Binder 04-23-2003 11:26 AM

exactly

opentocomments 04-23-2003 01:21 PM

IE came with my PC and i have been upgradeing and this is what i got

Fallon 04-23-2003 06:26 PM

Been usin Mozilla for awhile now, ever since I fried windows on this computer, and linux was the only thing to work. Had a decent time with it so far. Kinda miss the quickness of the load, but it still is nice being able to say, hey, least I'm not usin windows.

yodapaul 04-23-2003 07:12 PM

I use Mozilla mostly, but I do use IE 6 for some sites.

oblar 04-23-2003 07:21 PM

Netscape 7.02 is nice (don't go anything earlier)
-tabbed browsing
-popup killers

I know mozilla has the same things, but I have been a netscape fan ever since Netscape 2.0 (although they almost lost me with Netscape6... eww)

however, fi I am just looking for a quick tidbit of information (text), then I generally go with lynx. Nothing like the speed of good ol' text browsers!

Spanky Johnson 04-23-2003 07:37 PM

Another Mozilla user here. I love the tabbed browsing feature, and I never see a pop-up.

smoked salmon 04-23-2003 07:52 PM

used ie for years then switched to opera :)

tronewy 04-24-2003 01:03 AM

mozilla and ie6 used to use opera before 7 but didnt see the need after i got mozilla.

yotta 04-24-2003 01:21 AM

I use mozilla and konqueror both.

Switch banks. Complain.

zwik 04-24-2003 11:35 AM

safari here

Macheath 04-24-2003 03:33 PM

I like mozilla for the popup and tabbed browsing. Another thing is that this is a shared computer and my sister uses IE, which she prefers. This way we can have our own separate browsers and keep the settings the way we like.

Zello 04-24-2003 04:40 PM

I used to use Opera untill I reformatted my computer. Have been to lazy to reinstall it. IE gets the job done so I havent really needed Opera.

spankthru 04-24-2003 09:10 PM

Bow to the Red Dinosaur! Mozilla to the masses! I've used Netscape 2.02, 4.5, and 4.7. Netscape 6 and 7 sucked the turkey's nuts, so I used IE for a while. Now I use Mozilla, and love it!
