Netscape lol who voted for that I don't even think they still make it. And f u AOL you get 0 votes no matter how many free Internet cd's you try to give away
 
Google Chrome. Slick and sexy unlike Ethernet Explorer that takes half a screen. Not to mention seems pretty fast. I use to use Firefox but now I switch to chrome.
 
Currently Opera 11.50, Firefox.7.0b2 and Chrome.
Each one is used for a day, then I switch to another one and so forth.
Opera-Chrome-Firefox-Opera...
 
Internet Explorer, occasionally Firefox. IE rips firefox now in everything but the themes. And Chrome may be faster, but after a detailed study on it I found it will wear down my pc faster. So I didn't use it.
 
Anybody else right here use Flock? Haven't used it for quite a while and wonder if it's getting better and better....

Not a FireFox fan, currently running Chrome on my Windows pc and will be trialing safari on my new MBP at the weekend but may revert to Chrome if its got a good mac system
 
So I tried out a more current version of Chromium the other day. Meh, it's all right, I don't see what the hoopla is all about. Unsurprisingly it's a lot like the browser that comes with the Xoom.
 
I run firefox, but it's been freezing a lot lately. I'll just be browsing normal sites maybe a few tabs open and it will just freeze and sometimes you can wait it out and others just gotta force quit it. Do any of you no how to stop this from happening?
 
Give me Chrome or give me death! Not going back to Firefox, especially not going back to I-Explorer

Try a clean profile.

To do this open "run" and type in "firefox.exe -P" (without the quotes) then create a new profile and untick the option to "don't show at startup". Click the new profile and try it out and once you're done with it retick the don't ask at startup option when you next start firefox and open the default profile to return to nomal.

If it's any better it mean either your addons or settings is causing a problem.
 
200th reply! Is it me or had WE9 gotten a LOT faster than its predecessor? I just got WIndows 7 and I got WE9, and its blazingly fast.

Hmm I have never heard of this new profile thing. I'm on a Mac so this exact way won't work, I shoulda mentioned that before but thanks for giving a answer. I have uninstalled all themes and ad ons that I do not use and do not install many ad ons anyway. I have also reinstalled firefox and updated to the most current version, but it has just gotten worse. I am thinking it may be a problem with there tabs feature as it usually happens when I close tabs, go to click on another tab after closing one, or when I right click a link to than open a new tab.

Try disabling the addons you do use to see if that makes a difference.
 
Firefox at home all the time.

However I have to run Firefox, Chrome and IE at work for testing reasons, however I always use the 'Google Chrome Frame' plug-in for IE. As it gets rid of the horrible Java script that sits in IE and replaces it with the one from Chrome. Makes a massive difference.


Scaff
 
Chrome as my primary, then IE 9 as an emergency backup for sites like Rockwell Automation that have parts that refuse to play well with Chrome
 
I always use Firefox 6.0.2, with add-ons/extensions supplied. My emergency browser is Internet Explorer, and that's all there's a use for that browser. If there was no such thing as an emergency, I would've already wiped it out off my PC (I know a way to do so).
 
firefox 7.0 Beta with Adblocker Plus & AdBlocker Plus Pop-up Addon!!!! the best combo ive ever done!!!

oh and chrome for those times i want to suprise my self!!!! :P
