Just wondering what you use. I myself use Opera. Sorry if I forgot any other important browsers.

Firefox mainly here, sometimes use IE coz of plug ins etc

Firefox for me! I love the window tabs, I use that so often, rather than having 20 sites listed on taskbar.
It is also very user friendly, safer(don't know) and blocks popups too.

Firefox - love the mouse gestures plugin!

Firefox all the way.

IE has updated. It stole Firefox's pop-up blocker and tab method.

Firefox for me. Mine has a very fetching (or slightly silly 
) Blue Cat browser theme.
Cheers,
Tony
edit - moved 'blue cat' out of the parentheses.

The paste and go feature in Opera is simply awesome. Saves you some time pressing go.
The speed dial function is great too.

AOL search baby. all the way.
or how about some of that netscape navigator?

Firefox, I've loved it since the first time I used it.
What are these "mouse gestures" you speak of? 
Posted by: tonymiro Nov 10 2007, 09:21 AM

Opera Opera Opera!
Brilliant browser, Firefox, I find, is slower.

What I really can't stand with Firefox and IE is that when a pop-up is blocked a window pops down in the browser window (or whatever you call it) to tell you.

I do like Opera - in fact they had mouse gestures before Firefox even existed, but I defected when Firefox came out ...

Firefox, but I've been thinking of changing to Opera for years now, but I'm waaay to comfortable with Firefox's interface, so..
Posted by: FretDancer69 Nov 10 2007, 09:56 AM
Firefox 
, i love it. 
Posted by: VinceG Nov 10 2007, 05:13 PM
Firefox. user friendly and fast.
Posted by: Vinicitur Nov 10 2007, 05:32 PM
Started using Opera. For some reason Firefox would use up too much CPU cycles.
Posted by: mattacuk Nov 10 2007, 05:42 PM
Firefox at the moment, but im finding it slow in many instances! 
So i may try Opera next.
Edit: Ive just intalled Opera and its sooooooo smooth and quick! no more firefox for me
Posted by: Pavel Nov 10 2007, 06:42 PM
I guess Firefox is the winner here
Posted by: Bali Nov 10 2007, 06:45 PM
Try Avant,
http://www.avantbrowser.com/
It has tons of features, very light and fast
Posted by: botoxfox Nov 10 2007, 07:10 PM
Yeah, I used Avant at some point too.
Posted by: botoxfox Nov 11 2007, 03:39 AM
Haha, I just dicovered mouse gestures. Cool...
Posted by: tonymiro Nov 11 2007, 09:02 AM
Mouse gestures - Opera or Firefox (don't know if IE supports them ) - is a great extension. Sad person that I am I also like the ones (apart from 'Cat Themes') that add customisable colours to the tabs. I'm just pretty childish and like a pretty interface though 
Drives my wife nuts though as she says it looks 'unprofessionable' when I open up my lap top in front of a client 
. Guess I'll just always be an amateur 
.
Cheers,
Tony

Yeah, I can't believe I never knew about this! It's really confusing, though, I think I just need to get used to it.
Posted by: tonymiro Nov 11 2007, 10:09 AM
Don't forget though Zephyr that you can set your own movements for functions
