Infamous Scribbler  Posts: 567 Joined: 22 Apr 2008  | Firefox, switched from IE to Firefox some time ago and never looked back. Tried Opera, but that just didn't have a right feel for me. Tried Chrome and it is pretty damn good, I'm just waiting for bugs to be worked out and plugin capabilities before switching to it. |
BANNED  Posts: 4378 Joined: 21 Aug 2008     | For some reason, Chrome is slower to launch than Firefox 3 is on my 3.0 GHz quadcore/8 GB RAM machine, even though I have 30+ add-ons for FF3 :o User was banned for: Microsoft and the World Domination of Gaming&Communication. (Permanent) |

If you collect browsers, where is Konqueror? Where is w3m? Where the hell is Lynx? They're all in somewhat Windows-friendly format as well, if you go searching for them. |

Press Junketeer  Posts: 424 Joined: 19 Jan 2008 | I use Explorer. That probably makes me equivalent to a maggot performing fellatio on the Devil, but it works and that's enough. |

Muckraker  Posts: 242 Joined: 4 Sep 2008  | At the minute IE7, but I'm tempted to try out Google Chrome. I stopped using firefox, but I can't remember why at the minute. |

Quad cores fuck up alot of stuff. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1431 Joined: 5 Jul 2008    | I use Opera. Would be using Chrome more if it were multiplatform. Sadly, it ain't. |

Server Administrator  Posts: 475 Joined: 27 Sep 2004   | Over 60% of our users use Firefox, a little over 25% use IE. I used IE6 primarily until FF3 was released because I was lazy and ran into memory leak issues with Firefox (although I had Firefox installed for web dev stuff). Now I switched to FF3, and have been happy with it since. Main reason being the memory management improvements, along with a few really handy addons like Firebug+Yslow, and the web developer toolbar. |
Paperboy  Posts: 19 Joined: 4 Sep 2008  | I use Firefox mainly. Chrome looks good and I like it so far. But what's it major flaw? Firefox has Memory Leaks, IE likes to take ages because of its many filters (Loading up your homepage takes almost 30 seconds which you can't press the stop button to stop!! (I'm on about when you first open the browser)), Opera displays pages irregulary and Safari crashes. |

As long as it isn't IE 1.6, it's all fine. |

Firefox's memory leaks are killer...it's what made me switch. |
Copy Clerk  Posts: 73 Joined: 27 Aug 2008  | Firefox 3, and as far as I'm concerned it does it's job more than well enough. I'd consider trying chrome, but that EULA is just a bit too repulsive for me. |
Paperboy  Posts: 30 Joined: 4 Sep 2008 | I am currently using Firefox 3, only thing I don't like is that realplayer havn't updated therir downloading tool, so if I want to download say flash video (youtube, the escapist etc.) I have to go over to Iexplorer or safari. |
Press Junketeer  Posts: 414 Joined: 9 Jul 2008 | Another Opera fan. I used to use firefox, but with all the add-ons I was using, it ran incredibly slowly. Opera has nearly all of those features built in, and is very, very fast. Chrome is my backup browser right now because of its deceptively simple interface and quick performance. |
Pulitzer Laureate  Posts: 760 Joined: 4 Sep 2008   | I use Firefox 3. I find it vastly superior to IE in terms of, well, everything! |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 3315 Joined: 9 Jul 2008  | I still use Internet Explorer, mostly because I started using it before I got anything else on my computer, and then I already had all my favorites and bookmarks and preferences down, not to mention that I don't experience the problems that so many people claim to have with it. When explorer does occasionally act up, though, I use Firefox. |
Beat Writer  Posts: 154 Joined: 13 Aug 2008 | Firefox 3..used IE 7 for a looooooong time, until it got all screwed up for me. I don't really have any add ons. But yeah, the random crashes are somewhat irritating, hell, a few times i've opened firefox just to get the "firefox crashed" message. |

Beat Writer Posts: 194 Joined: 27 Apr 2008 | I tried Opera a while back due to it supposedly being properly standards compliant, now that's all well and good, but it had a 30 second pause every time I started it after working fine for a few seconds and a lot of websites just didn't display properly. It felt a bit like having a car accident but being smug knowing it was someone else's fault, sure I was technically right but it was still bloody inconvenient. Currently using Firefox as I have done for a long while now, occasionally skip back to IE to use things like Outlook Web Access which aren't fully featured in Firefox. |

Firefox although I'm definitely going to give Chrome a run through over the weekend when I get the time.
