Thanks I'll try Flock there aren't to many options for macs.

I really dont know any others than the ones that i found. I hope they work out for you. I dont really see the point of trying to find other browser. The ones you've suggested are the best for browsing. There is no need to try to use others in my opinion.

You're right. My favorite browser right now is chrome because it is quick sleek and has a nice google integration which is expected. However I cannot go on certain sites when I use Chrome.

So I am looking for a browser that will allow me to go on any website.

 

[lubo4444]

Why is it not letting you to browse other websites?

I know KDE versions of Linux use Konqueror as a web browser.

remember netscape? lol

I'm not sure I think it is something related to which language the website is written in. I have only noticed this with the Oakley website.

I was able to get to www.oakley.com using someone's chrome browser just fine.

The reason many people favour Firefox is that it is a good browser and has so many plug-ins written for it. Those may slow things down but overall increase the value. Chrome will catch up. The other browsers have far less support.

thanks to this thread. I only knew Opera, Netscape, Chrome, IE and firefox until tonight.

rekonq is a nice light browser based on WebKit. Don't have any links though.

Everyone used it until IE stole the general public

Yeah I read about it lol, Microsoft wanted to dominate the world with MSN (which, at one point, was going to be called ONVO lol ) and Internet Explorer when they released Windows 95, which is why it came out so late in the year.
