I use Safari because it's fast and blends in with OSX well. Before Leopard I used to use FireFox but it was really slow on my system for some reason.
 
Opera is faster and better with system resources, but I mostly use Firefox for adblock plus and greasemonkey.
 
I want to say Firefox is 100% better than I.E., but there is only one thing that I.E. has done better that will always keep me half hearted about FF...it was made by teh sexy hands of Bill.

IE has many security holes, and is slower than Opera. If you like fast things, go for Opera. Much more screen space for the functionality than IE.

Security holes? I never had any problems with viruses on my computer[come to think of it, I NEVER had a problem with viruses ever]. As long as you have a real time protection running on the background, you're good to go[you should have one even if you're not using IE]. Opera is even worse than Firefox about compatiblity. No thanks.
You can't just say "I never seen them, so they must not exist!"
They are there whether you're aware of them or not. And that whole "run protection in the background at all times" mentality is a result of stupid computer illiterate people living in fear of viruses because they're using unsecure software. I'm running Linux and I don't have to worry about viruses because it doesn't have the gaping security holes that Windows has. Neither do the people with Macs.

Also, Internet Explorer doesn't render webpages properly. There is something called the Acid2 test that tests compliance with web standards. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid_2

Here is how Opera, Safari and Firefox 3 render it

Also, Internet Explorer doesn't render political predictions properly. There is something called the Acid2 test that tests validity in prediction algorithms.

I'm a real hard man, I don't need any of this fancy image bullshit, I use retawq.
I masturbate to ASCII porn.

If I'm feeling a little bit soft, I might open up Opera though.
