Mozilla Firefox is best

Maxthon - the best
by datacreek - 9/28/05 8:32 AM In reply to: Maxthon by bytlanMaxthon is simply the best browser available.
I'm a developer and have spent much time with them all and without a doubt Maxthon is the best.
More secure, faster, great plug-ins and I could go on and on...
It's always about Mozilla vs IE so those guys get the press and the serious attention of news reporting sites and testers but if they turned their attention to Maxthon they would be blown away.
Maxthon does use the IE engine but contains additional security features.
Try it, you'll be glad: http://www.maxthon.com/
Maxthon rocks!!!
by ruthlyngw - 9/30/05 2:37 PM In reply to: Maxthon by bytlanI started having a lot of trouble with IE6 and went hunting for another browser. I tried Netscape, Firefox, Avant Browser and I even have AOL... but Maxthon is now my browser of choice, fast, slim and very easy to use! THANKS GUYS!
Same here

Opera is cool
by EccentricLui - 9/27/05 5:59 PM In reply to: Opera 8.50 by Raj DynelI think Opera 8.50 is the best for the pc, but I have a mac now and it's just not as good on the Mac. I'm using Safari and Camino.

Other--Mozilla 1.7.12

This all in one browser seeems to be easier to maintain, and gets all the security updates that are common to it and Firefox. And--it doesn't automatically install or run nasty OCXes or executable attachments, like IE.

by zepper - 11/25/05 9:15 AM In reply to: Other--Mozilla 1.7.12 by paoconnellI have used Netscape or variants since the beginning in preference to anything else including IE. IE is sucn a security risk that it should only be used for the few things where an alternate might suffice like doing your OS and application updates from M$.
. I like Mozilla because it isn't burdened by all the baggage that AOL/Netscape hangs on it - an the Moz has nothing to do with AOL (the ISP of spammers, morons and other assorted ne'er do wells) is a big plus to me.

I use 22 different browsers
by Trepid49 - 9/27/05 5:55 PM In reply to: Which browser do you use most? by Marc Bennett
I like trying alot of different browsers. I use Roboform so I stick mostly with the browsers that use that. I dont care to much for Opera. I like Avant,netcaptor, slimbrowser and Maxthon . I use IE6.0 and firefox alot. I also use Mozilla 1.7.12. But that one like netscape 8.0 give to many warnings you have to click on to go to the next screen. I have other off the wall browsers that are fun to play around with like Phaseout,Fastbrowser,Crazy browser and Acoo. I also use AOL. I have more also and always looking. although I use all of these the ones I use the most are IE6 and Firefox equally. I like them both.
here is another for ya
by burnhamd - 9/27/05 6:06 PM In reply to: I use 22 different browsers by Trepid49I used a browser that used a 3-d type layout so that you could browse faster but tabs worked better. It was called browse3d. Kinda neet but not for full time.
22 Browsers
by bigdyze - 9/27/05 8:19 PM In reply to: I use 22 different browsers by Trepid49I consider myself a browserholic - I love trying different browsers. But I only have 11 of them. 22! Wow! I'll have to try some of your recomendations.
I mostly use Avant and I really like Maxthon and Greenbrowser. Have you ever tried E2? I like it but nobody ever mentions it.
For the last few weeks I've been using Netscape 8.0. The latest update seems to have fixed all the bugs.
I've been using Firefox since before it was Firefox but on my system it's just slow as crap! I tried all the pipeling tricks but it's just slow! I always wind up back at an IE shell.
