Still using Firefox predominantly. Use IE occasionally, mainly for alt-accounts as well as some websites that don't work with Firefox.

Recently got Opera. Trying it out. So far I am not impressed; it seems to like the Google Chrome/Chromium method of smashing everything into one menu, and I want it to cycle through links AND entry fields when I press tab, not just entry fields...

If only I could get Epiphany for Windows, but such does not exist.

If you still use websites that don't work properly in Firefox, I'm looking for freelance work. They should be more than willing to fire whoever they have working for them now. tongue.gif

Funny how times change for me. I haven't used IE in a good 4 years now. I currently use a variant of FireFox known as Pale Moon and it works really well for me.

I use Firefox on OSX and Chrome on Windows 7. Both choices are because it's the fastest I've tried on both OS.

I use opera. No reason really just suits me.

Firefox. I forget when I first picked it up, but it's been long enough to fade memories of Explorer. I've had zero trouble with it, except for the occasional flash player hang. NoScript heart.gif

I flip between Firefox and Chrome pretty regularly. I tend slightly more towards Chrome, but it's not unheard of that I'll click one or the other, and be mad that I'm not logged into anything because I've been using the other browser so habitually.

You're telling me that there's no hope.

I'm telling you you're wrong.

Internet Explorer for me. Firefox's text is always messed up on my PC, and I'm perfectly fine without it.

I'm currently stuck with Google Chrome. I'm already used to all of its keyboard shortcuts, but lately Chrome's been bugging me--leaving phantom processes open that slow down the rest of my browsing.

But I'll live with it. Firefox and even IE have really closed the gap between browsers at this point.

I've been running Firefox for ages now. I don't really care for Chrome's interface but I installed it to give it a try and I didn't hate it enough to get rid of it, so I have that too.

Do I have to just pick one? ><

I use Firefox and Opera on this laptop while on the desktop I tend to use Chrome more. Why do I have so many internet browsers you ask? I dunno either. I'm not one of those "OH GOD, KILL IT WITH FIRE" type of people when it comes to IE, but it's really my last choice when given the others.

It's interesting to see this topic again - last time I posted in it (5 years ago) I said I wanted to try out Firefox because I'd been on IE, and Josh posted a link to the FF download site. I downloaded it right then and have been using it since. My girlfriend still uses IE and doesn't understand why her internet doesn't work half the time. Ah well, can't win 'em all.

I am using Mozilla Firefox as i feel it is faster when compared to other browsers.
