What Web Browser Do You Use?

[OS Dragon]

I think its the most diverse one there is granted I have only used a few per se (IE, Opera, Mozilla, Netscape and AOL Browser). They all suck in the end except FF

There is a TON you can do, but the very basics are...wel let's jsut link to a "guide" that kind of explains each setting.

I jsut use a program called "FasterFox" that "does everything for you". From what I can tell, it tunes it jsut as wel as I could in a fraction of the time. At first its fun to mess around with but after a while I hate re-setting everything and FasterFox does the job well enough.

Perfect. Thank you! I've tried a handful of these about:config things with Nutscrape 7 and they work just fine.

i read some where that opera is safer than Firefox, and it is the fastest browser ever.

Yes, but...
With Firefox, downloading from a fast server ( ) I usually get about 1000 KBps. With Opera, I'm lucky if I get 450 KBps.
And Opera is only the 'safest' because hardly anyone uses it. Viruses and spyware target the most used browser to cause more damage.
I use Opera, but I don't really know why. I guess it's the minimize to tray feature but that IS available in FF.

I use IE since you can open source code directly on notepad, unlike firefox

Firefox does that, too.

I used IE until about 5 months ago when a coworker of mine showed mr FF. Been using it eversince. Espessially like the tab feature (i know other browsers use it and that ie7 will have it) also the extensions and themes. I also like all the options assosiated with it. Theres many security and other configuration changes you can make.

Why not just used firefox?
Its better and it has all the features of IE and more.
Do they still have that "Flush" Feature?

Using Firefox,

I did have Fasterfox instaled but it made it slower

Didnt make it faster whatsoever

That exact same thing happened to me. I got it and was restarting firefox and I opened it and everything was slower, not a little bit slower, way slower. Like it took 10 seconds to load google. I just uninstalled it and it was fine again

U know what i mean when its fully released and everyones using it. I havent checked ie7 out yet but i do plan on giving it a full chance when it fully comes out.

I run FireFox, and for spare IE

Would like to see FireFox use less resources though....

Huh that is odd, FasterFox works fine for me. I guess I'll un-install it and see if there is a difference at all.

IE7 is better than FF, just an opinion. Don't underestimate it
