Which browser do you use?

Very simple. Just post the browser you use and the main reason why. As for me, I use Firefox 3.5. The speed and extensibility are the main reasons.

Thanks for that! I wonder why it isn't in the preferences... hmm...

I used Mozilla Firefox for may daily works I agree browser has the fast speed and extensibility, It's a more popular browser in the world and it's provide add one facilities in the browser. It is more efficient and easy to use for every one. So these are the main reason for choose the Mozilla Firefox Browser.

Hahaha, 20 replies with noone even mentioning Internet Explorer =D . As for me, I constantly switch between chrome and firefox. I noticed that many of you know well about FF, so if you can help me out, i'll much appreciate it. heres the thing, when i access facebook or gmail or whatever website that requires logging in on firefox, i always get the login page, even though i click on the Remember Me or Login in Directly check box ! now the good thing is that it stores my password, not having to write it again, but i do have to keep logging everytime. now another thing, facebook doesnt seem to work normally. when flipping through the photos of an album, it keeps on loading, not going to the next page..... plus, when ignoring or accepting a request of any type, it doesnt click !!! help me please =) i dont have any kind of trouble described above with chrome !

oh and btw, i sometimes use safari when my firefox gets "stubborn" on OS X

Opera 10... no question.

I constantly find myself alternating between Firefox 3.5 and Safari 4 under OS X.
I switch to Safari whenever Firefox starts to take too much CPU/RAM.

Yep, same story here. I'd use Firefox 100% of the time if they wrote the damn app in Cocoa. I know they are working on it, but it's taking too much time IMHO.

So, final word for me... I use Firefox with rein skin and tiny menu. Cant stand the default look. under OSX I now use camino because safari is slightly buggy plus camino looks better IMHO.

IE is for losers who don't have a browsing experience... :D

i do no more care for what browser to user :P tried almost all of them.
Now i am switching between opera ( for its no matched ctrl+enter feature for passwords :D - i log in daily to at least 3 websites :P ) and chrome for debugging my apps since its somehow fast...

I would like to note - after merely 2 years experience with exclusivly firefox - that the fox is gr8 for its add-ons but these same gr8 add-ons are what makes it soooo heavy... and much of the add-ons i used to place where build in opera anyway :P ( the fast dial, and little "Panels" on the left )..

Firefox is bad because xul is terrible. it is good for writing platform independent extensions but it's not a good choice to use for a user interface of a web browser. :/

rolf wrotei modded firefox down to a super slim interface, no status bar, no address bar (u get the address bar inside the new page)... but its a bit messy, some little bugs. Would like to delve into the code...
In the meantime, I use chrome :P it is the most polite browser out there.

OMG ROLF! ( belak shu fade hehe ) u know u could just press F11 nd press it back when u want ;) i guess u get the joy of accomplishment when u mod something....... i lost that feeling a few years ago

GN90
