Favourite Browser Proggy...
Sorry if this has already been covered, however, I was wondering what everyone's favourite browser is??
I tend to use Netscape 7.1 more than others simply because it allows you to bookmark groups of tabs...and allows for multiple-tab browsing. The only thing that really irks me is that Netscape doesn't support Gestures (as MSIE does.) My qestion is this: Is there a great browser out there that I am missing that does everything right?! If not, is there an SDK out there where I might be able to create an add-on for Netscape to support gestures?

I'm using Avant Browser. Its a freeware browser that wraps around IE, but gives you stuff like popup blocking, tabbed windows, built-in Google searching, and other nice little options. I like it, mostly because I don't have to give up my IE features to get some more.

internet explorer 6 and i'm happy with it.
it's pretty much universal and likes to integrate well with the other ms products i have.

Opera 7.11 is simply the best browser out there. I switched 2 years ago and I've never touched IE since. I've also never seen a pop-up in that time. Do they exist??

Ok, so i feel kinda like a sellout, but i LOVE safari for OS X... really great and seems to not have bloat written every where it can and it looks smooth too. have not had a problem with it ever and it fast. about as good as opera without as many compatibility problems. Not to mention a flawless popup blocker!

Throw in another vote for Opera 7.11. I'll never use another browser that's available right now. (Who knows? Someone might improve.)
