Firefox since it was called firebird back in the 0.6 days.

Version 4 all the way \o/

Chrome.

Testing Chrome out for the next week or so, then I'll make a decision whether to stick with it or go back to Firefox for another few years.

I use Firefox but don't care too much as long as it's not Chrome. I would use IE before I used Chrome...

Why such a strong hatred?

Opera's the best built, but I've fallen into just using Safari for the sake of speed, simplicity, and compatibility. Minimalist.
I just read where Safari was the browser that got hacked the easiest at some contest last week, in literally less than 10 seconds.

5 seconds, to be exact.

So I'm to understand Chrome has gotten a lot better since I initially tried it and ditched it after a few days?

I've always been loyal to Firefox, but maybe I'll give it another shot.

If this thread was made 9 months or so ago, I would have posted this.

Mostly Safari. Firefox 4 comes out on Tuesday and I like it alot. Chrome is nice. I never liked Opera (mobile or desktop). I am on a Mac, so no IE for me. I tried IE 9 on my wife's Win7 machine and it was good but nothing special.

ThroughHerEyesDude6 · « **Reply #43 on:** March 17, 2011, 03:19:21 PM »

I was an avid FireFox user, but when I heard about Chrome I decided to give it a whirl. Haven't gone abck since. I think that was over a year ago.

sonatafanica · « **Reply #44 on:** March 17, 2011, 03:24:47 PM »

Chrome is pretty cool.

Gadough · « **Reply #45 on:** March 17, 2011, 04:39:41 PM »

I have Safari and Firefox. I really don't care which one I use. I just pick one at random when I get on the internet.

Opera. I like the big speed dial feature. Plus I always prefer dark/black themes, which you can do on Opera.

Dimitrius · « **Reply #50 on:** March 17, 2011, 05:28:02 PM »

I have a black theme on Chrome...

SPNKr · « **Reply #51 on:** March 17, 2011, 05:36:16 PM »

I use a web browser.

Firefox is used the most at my school and Opera at home only. Voted for Firefox because I use it the most.

really though, been a happy Chrome user for about 2 years now.

Fiery Winds · « **Reply #53 on:** March 17, 2011, 08:13:05 PM »

I use Chrome exclusively. However, when I worked at my last job that required a lot of browser printing, Firefox simply had the better printing options.

MetalManiac666 · « **Reply #54 on:** March 17, 2011, 08:21:07 PM »

I've had absolutely zero problems with Firefox, so I've felt no need to switch to Chrome. I used to use Safari back when I was primarily a Mac user...crashed all of the time. I don't have that much IE experience, but it seems pretty crap as well.

Firefox FTW

I use Firefox pretty much exclusively, but we occasionally have a falling out. I'll switch to Chrome for a while, realize how much I miss ad-block plus, and come back crying at Firefox to take me back.

ZBomber · « **Reply #57 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:08:11 PM »

Firefox is really making my computer kind of boggy, but I really like it's ad blocking... very rarely do I ever encounter ads on any website.

So yeah, I might switch to Chrome although I tried it before and it didn't really do much for me then.

Zero problems with Firefox since I started using it 2 years ago so no need to change here.

I'm using the latest RC version and I hope they have fixed some of the bugs I've come across with it for the official release. Mainly the back/forward navigation is getting weird after a while, I have to restart the browser to fix it. And the music is lagging and "skipping" now and then while I browse with FF4 (both mp3s and Spotify). It didn't happen with FF3 so I guess it's a FF4 problem.

If anyone finds a new AdBlock version for the next FF scheduled to drop in 5 days, let us know.

XJDenton · « **Reply #62 on:** March 18, 2011, 07:17:47 AM »

Firefox 4, because it incorperates the best parts of chrome without actually being chrome.

zxlkho · « **Reply #63 on:** March 18, 2011, 07:41:57 AM »

What's wrong with Chrome then...?

Adblock Plus works fine for me with FF4.

Just downloaded Firefox 4. Amazing.

So if I have Chrome, does IE still have to be on my computer, because whenever Chrome.exe is open, Explorer.exe shows up too. Is this normal?

Nick · « **Reply #67 on:** March 20, 2011, 05:48:50 PM »

If we're talking background processes, Explorer has nothing to do with internet explorer.

Zook · « **Reply #68 on:** March 20, 2011, 05:49:30 PM »

What does it have to do with then, oh vague one?

orcus116 · « **Reply #69 on:** March 20, 2011, 05:50:16 PM »

Chrome, definitely. Firefox was always a bit bloated for my taste. Pretty ugly GUI as well.
