Firefox just works. IE is slow and cranky, and the newer browsers don't have any advantage over Firefox that I'm aware of, so I haven't installed them. I've tried the Safari browser on my wife's Mac, and was underwhelmed.
Since IE quit being compatible with a Mac, I went to Firefox and have no complaints at all. Safari just does not work for me.
Windows Vista: Google Chrome
Ubuntu 8.04: Mozilla Firefox (or at least until Google comes out with Google Chrome for Linux)
I'm using firefox 3.5 I think. I was using chrome but it didn't scroll while viewing videos. The addons are most important to me now.
I mainly switched from IE due to how slow it is compared to most web browsers and because it the most vulnerable to security threats. I use Firefox as my main browser but have been trying out Safari lately. I love Safari's interface but it seems slower than Firefox and I had trouble with log-ins. My computer has been acting weird today so if Safari turns out just as fast or faster I'll switch to it. The only add-ons I use with Firefox are AVG Linkscanner and KeyScrambler so not a big deal I guess.
I noticed you're new to the CNET forums,
Welcome and enjoy your stay here =)
because it is fast
I'm using 3 browsers such as: Opera, Chrome, Firefox just in case one application needs browser support / compatibility, i can easily switch to another...
