Gaming Fuck firefox!

Opera has the ad-blocker built in

I think what you're looking for is Opera

I agree
After going through IE, Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Opera, Opera is by far the best. It does have compatability issues from here to there but its fetures more than make up for it.

Same here. Been through
IE6/7 (not tried 8 but can't be bothered really)
Firefox 2.0 Beta to 3 (latest) :Had same problem as others with latest versions (slow startup/crashes/ locksup etc - even in 'safe mode')
Chrome: Found very limited in 'customising' but not bad for a 'newbie'
Safari: Not actually tried that one, might try it one day. But it's done by Apple & I didn't like how Apple use to insist that you install iTunes when installing Quicktime (Do they still do that now ??) - so usually avoid anything done by Apple
Opera 9 (full and portable) & 10 Beta: So far stuck with this (9 on home PC, 10Beta on USB).

Found to be quick to start, stable, Secure (due to lack of activeX probably), fairly well compatible with most sites (some site have weird graphical glitches - but guess that's due to website insisting on IE/Firefox browsers).

Only a few problems with stuff like missing 'addons' like 'WOT' & 'IETab' - but have found 'workarounds' for these.
Also it is a 'bit slow' @ work running from the USB drive. Mind you the PC's @ work are about 5 years old, only have 256Mb of memory (I think there's 1 or 2 with 512Mb) & running XP Pro, so a LOT of Virtual memory is used (Guess the IT department cut corners somewhere

)

Notice they don't include Safari

*Gasp* Firefox user

Its a pretty decent browser, but then I again I use a combination of Internet Explore and Firefox when one is running into trouble. I don't like the other type of browsers.

Im still wondering why you should post a link to a website with regards to microsoft browser usage. I mean how many times have you heard MS say we suck our programs suck go buy somethingelse?

MS have proven themselfs not to be trustworthy, their backdoors and boldface lies about Internet Exploder is reason enough never to trust them on this matter . Yes im talking about how IE supposedly couldnt be removed due to it being part of the kernel, IE is the only browser that you can rely on being targeted by whatever hacker to get in your network updates or not (like you could format someone's drive through IE and other "handy" MS programs).

You do know that the latest beta is Firefox 3.5 Release Candidate 2, right?

 

[pEpz]

Before running the individual browsers, I ran ccleaner.
My computer is running on:
AMD Turion 64 1.6GHz processor
446MB of usable RAM
I am running it at "best performance"
I ran TuneUp Utilities beforehand

My laptop is slow, relatively speaking, but then it's about 2 years old. I'm buying some memory to increase performance, eventually.

More like 4
I use chrome(beta one) cuz it's so damn fast when you do 10 things at the same time and when I get errors(more and more rare) i switch to ie8
I love it to press the button and the page open like an instant cast of over 9000!

 

[lildaz]

Yea...was thinking about switching to chrome or safari...but I dont like how they dont have the adblock add-on

Theres a tweak that I use for my Firefox 3.6a1pre that lets me use addons regardless of if its suppose to be compatable or not:

extensions.checkcompatibility or something to false in your about:Config page.

LOL, look at the webstandards section, they say IE is so standards compliant...
ACID3 results:
Firefox 3.0.11 - 72/100
Chrome 2.0.172.31 - 100/100, linktest failed
Safari 4 - 100/100, perfect
IE8 - drumroll please... 20/100

So they finally pass ACID2 in 2009, then claim their browser is so standards-compliant. That page is full of bullshit.

Well it is Microsoft that made the page. I'm surprised they haven't started selling IE yet after you install an OS.

I use Nightly and Beta and there's a extension called Nightly Tester Tools which does this (without Firefox bugging you to put it back on).

EDIT: About Internet Explorer - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid3#Desktop_browsers
Look at IE8 get an astonishing 20/100 on the Acid3! It scored 6 better than IE7!
The only other browsers that scored that horribly low (that they show on there) is a early version of Safari and some mobile browsers!

Firefox Beta gets 94/100 and Opera Beta gets 100/100.

If we commenting about web browser comparrisions - you cant really just have 1 test (i.e. acid 3) you really need a group test
Quick search came up with this

Notice on the last paragraph

Internet Explorer 7 was last in all three tests

& the ones classed as 'best':- Chrome & Opera [10]

Guess what I'm sticking with

Oh - on a side note - here's a comparison of web browsers

the addon I can't use anymore are not worth the trouble

I'll switch to Chromium/Chrome whenever it reaches stable for Linux. (Chrome is based off Chromium, Chrome's logo is just a different colored Chromium logo)

I like to use firefox and google chrome then both have their pros and cons.

 

[piratesmack]

I've always liked Seamonkey better than Firefox.

I'm using the nightly builds

I did use Firefox 3.0.11. And then I saw 3.5 so I downloaded that and it was shit.
Then I uninstalled it and tried Opera. That was shit as well, because I had to reload the page everytime I loaded it from a link. D: So I was stuck with IE and I downloaded Chrome. I use Chrome all the time now!

IE = As shit as you can get.
Firefox = Stay with 3.0.(x) and you're fine.
Opera = No. But the Pop-up blocker is good.
Safari = I never downloaded.
Chrome = The best. EVER.
