Firefox. IE only if the website _requires_ it. Like Netflix does. I have not had a problem accessing Netflix with Firefox. The only site I need IE for is Hotmail.

I'm feeling alone over here in the Opera fanboy section... http://www.opera.com/ - It had all the fancy gadgets and such that Firefox has 10 years ago.

I mainly use Fire Fox. I like the spell check feature. But also have IE7 as a back up, just in case. Well OK not really a back up. It came with my computer and it is sorta just there.

Streaming from Netflix, you need IE running on a Windows PC. Which I have, I'd just like to do the same with Firefox on my Ubuntu PC.

Firefox 3.0.1 user here. I've also been known to use Opera once in a while, too. IE just plain sucks, and Avant Internet Browser has been known to pack some spyware within its code.

In fact, I just loaded Opera and am quite impressed with not only how well designed it is but how damn fast it is. Opening up some pretty heavy MySpace pages earlier this evening was a lot faster than with either FF or Flock. The tests were not perfect but both browsers were pretty stripped down when I compared it. Opera is very cool. -Drew

I usually stick to Firefox. But I might have to give Flock a try. And when I do use Opera it's only because it's the default browser on my Wii.

I know that FF is the standard and no one has really made a compelling argument that nods in a different direction. Still, there are some neat features in most browsers that are somewhat exclusive. To that end I sometimes wish I could take bits and pieces of all of them and build one. Since that is not going to happen I will use a variety of different applications and enjoy the fact that we now live in a day past IE and Netscape. -Drew

Opera because it takes up less memory than FF or IE, or anything else I've ever tried. Also it's ability to mask itself as IE or firefox is great for fooling websites, because they restrict access based on what browser you are using.

I was stuck using IE 7 for a long time, but I downloaded the new google browser today and have been suing it all day. fire fox would be a good backup but I don't have enough RAM to load as fast as I would like it too. will be working on some serious upgrades when the $$$$$$ is there.
