Best Browser?

Sat Feb 25, 2006 5:51 am

I currently use a combination of Opera and Firefox... Firefox for rsing, because of the easy-to-use adblock and Opera for everything else...

Basically:

Firefox of course.

IE is too slow.

Lies :P

Most of what you hear about firefox is lies. It has higher system reqs, slower to start, slower to load pages, is incompatable with about 10-15% of websites that just plain wont load (as opposed to IEs .1%) and etc.

However I still switch between IE and firefox all the time. Infact, I use firefox because it is slower in order to play neopets games and get more points.

I just use IE. Only IE :P

Firefox. It actually loads quicker than IE for me, and it has themes and tabs that don't suck.

Internet Explorer. :)

Firefox. IE was way too slow for me, and Firefox is not slow at all.

Firefox, I sometimes have about 20 tabs open at a time. >< IE would kill me.

Firefox. When I had IE, I was annoyed because I would have like 15 windows up at once, and the tabbed browsing saved me. Although, I still use IE for sites that don't cooperate in FF.

Opera and Netscape have too much junk installed by default.

I use IE, just 'cause I'm too lazy to download anything else.

Firefox is the absolutely best. Except when you wanna use Subeta. Then I get on regular Mozilla.

The only time it's slow starting for me is on Linux, but Linux is slow loading regular Mozilla as well. Memory card in my machine's too small or something.

Firefox is totally not faster than IE. IE is a very fast loader. However, I do prefer using Firefox for various other reasons.

Firefox. It is slower on my old laptop than IE and uses more RAM than my computer can handle (it's ancient I tell you!) but I still prefer it over IE. :)

Safari.

Firefox, but I use IE occasionally since graphics look weird on Firefox sometimes, and certain media files won't work on Firefox.

Dragonfire: There's a new version of IE which has tabbed browsing and other features. You can download it on the Microsoft site, although Firefox is still better. :P.
