What browser do you guys use?

[CarlTR6]

I use multiple browsers. For trusted sites that aren't ad-heavy, Chrome. I like the search from the address bar and it seems to render pages faster. For untrusted sites or if I plan to DL lots of files I'll use FF with DownThemAll and ABP.

Like you, I was using a couple of browsers. I am now trying Lunascape and it gives me three browsers in one. So far, I like it.

Firefox for me....I know it, I'm comfortable with it, and if for some reason it failed me, IE8 is there, at least to let me connect and evaluate my options.
Edit....previous poster was right, there are other threads discussing this.

Firefox

Reasons:
1). Add-ons
2). They did tabbed browsing before IE
3). Habit

How would that be relevant to your choice?

I use Opera because they used tabbed browsing before Firefox.:sarc:

This needs to be a multiple selection poll. I tend to use both Firefox and IE.

I primarily use them because I am used to them. For what I do, most browsers do whatever I need.

I originally started using IE because it is always there on Windows, and Firefox because it is cross platform and I used to like playing with the add-ins.

I use 3 different browsers. Firefox is till slow, but I use it to double-check what visitors to my website see if they have it, IE crashes, but at least it's faster and I use SeaMonkey only for editing my website.

Suffering with Opera 10.10 nowadays - until they fix their horribly buggy 10.x code (10.5x is even worse)

Using Opera 10.51 i did have big problems upgrading 10.1 to 10.5 , I eventually deleted 10.1 completely & did a fresh install of 10.5 which worked fine & have since updated to 10.51 some how Opera managed to speed up the Peacekeeper benchmark by another 29% over 10.5 . I wonder if there are more speed increases to come.

FF, coz of its features & add-ons.

Well I was a big Chrome fan until I just installed W7 64bit on my new machine and IE8 runs pretty fast so have not seen the need to run another browser...yet

 

[Jonathan_King]

I use Firefox mainly, but also Chrome.

[burtie]

Does Chrome work on 64bit?

Does Chrome work on 64bit?

Oh yes, very nicely.

 

[burtie]

Hmm..might have to have another go then

I've tried almost every internet browser in the world, but I always go back to Opera. It's the fastest browser in the world. Everything you need for surfing the internet is already included in the package, no need for addons. With an e-mail client included, all my internet needs are satisfied.

Bingo! It does it all no add ons and its FAST!!

Well i installed Chrome again on my new machine...and I have to say I missed it after using IE8 for the last five days. Think I will be sticking with Chrome as it seems even faster now

 

[Jonathan_King]

I agree, Chrome does seem snappier than the other browsers.

 

[burtie]

Yup especially on my new machine with 64 bit
