Merely because of having to use it, it goes to IE.

But I will use FF when the feeling takes me or if somethings not streaming/ loading properly

Firefox just need to vote the only way to go

One thing that does annoy me with Opera is the compatability with some sites, they don't work or lag to hell or are just dumbed down versions (Live image search)

Is this the people making the sites being lazy or is it the browser itself? cause i know IE and FF don't use the same source or anything and they run basically any site fine and it's even gayer when you go on a site and it tells you to go and download FF or something cause you're using a browser that isn't supported by there shoddy site

Opera is very compliant with web standards, IE is not. Opera is more standards compliant based on the tables in Wikipedia than any other web browser, so it is just poor web page design if it doesn't work in Opera.

Lazy peoples, Well, that was a good read, i see Opera getting a good result in nearly all of them, thanks for the link.

Firefox all the way (i think my avatar makes that clear)

A christmas tree?

I love Firefox, and I will always use it no matter what OS I am on. Safari is a very nice browser on Mac OS X also.

my favorite browser is mozilla firefox. donno why but I got used to it. I also tried ie7 but no joke first run ended in a critical error... why bother?

The other day i was reading the paper and when i saw one of the ads i mentally went to block it ha, Opera is taking over my mind

As Firefox's security gets beefed up, it's starting to have compatibility issues with certain hardware and web sites.

As of version 2.0011 (for me anyway), it will no longer display pictures at Amazon or Webshots. I run it with "No Script", but this is after granting (what I believe to be), the proper permissions. "Flashblock" no longer functions either in this version and it needs to be disabled.

I installed a a Foxconn 945P7AA motherboard a couple of days in a machine that had had a board with the newer Intel G965 chipset. The Foxconn board has a "Broadcom" integrated LAN adapter and the newest Firefox is unable to connect to the internet. When I install an older, (2.004) version it hooks up just fine. Unless I missed a "you gotta set it" configuration button somewhere on the later version. But the fact remains, it won't run as installed. Yes, I updated the Broadcom drivers.

donno if I got all this right but I use firefox 2.0.0.11 and NoScript 1.2.6 and I don't have any problems with no website. plus, no matter if I use the wireless card or the broadcom integrated lan the internet works fine.... so?

It doesn't work for me, so obviously you're doing it right if it does.

The "No Script" works fine for me, just not in conjunction with "Flash Block". These issues for me are across 2 different machines. And certain things (for me) don't seem to be working the same. In both cases I did "clean installs" after the attempt at updating failed. In both cases with the same results. No hard feelings though with Firefox, it's still my favorite browser, but Opera, which doesn't exhibit these symptoms gets a little more use. Hey, maybe I'm giving up too easy.

Adden-dumb...: Zone Alarm was apparently running in some sort of bizarre "Stealth Mode". I actually forgot it was installed! It had no tray icon and no control panel. So, I guess it was putting up it's "double-secret, eyes only, invisible" permissions screen. I uninstalled it and FF 2.0011 works like a charm. My Avast AV even updates correctly. Yeah, Firefox! Do I feel stupid, you say? Me no say!

Well, I like IE7 because of the tabbed browsing. Other than that i could care less. I really dont have much time to fool with FF but i have used it b4 and know that tabbed browsing comes from FF so I would vote for FF. But ima hold out a while. Safari is not bad but i hate MAC's.

Actually, tabbed browsing first appeared in Opera.

Verizon Yahoo, bases their browser on IE-6. However, it's highly modded and actually has tabbed browsing. When I was first turned onto Firefox, by the tabbed browsing pitch....I was there scratching my head thinking, don't all browsers have tabbed browsing? Since I went from AOL (trial), to Verizon, I never actually had to use IE6 as IE6. So what, am I the only one who's led a sheltered life?

Lol ooo..i aint hip to opera so of to my knowledge, I onlii knew of FF having tabbed browsing b4 i met IE7. But opera has more votes than IE so that says enough i guess

A bunch of positive comments for Opera on Digg recently.

I've started using opera lately, because frankly, FF has started to suck. It doesn't work correctly with my network adapter anymore, takes ~20 sec to start, and uses up like 250 mb of RAM, which is way too much. Opera on the other hand starts up right away and seems much snappier. I just miss Ad Block and spell check from FF.

You have some issues with history cookies, too many windows open at once, something. I'm using FF 2.0011 now with 2 open tabs, and it's using about only 50 MB of memory. I still have the issue with having to click on "View Image" before I can see the pretty pictures at Amazon or Webshots.
