I've experimented also the IE 7 Beta from Microsoft... Well ... a Microsoft's firefox version, with tab navigation and all... but only problem is... those skins and decoratives are really heavy, so i prefer Firefox..

http://www.foxie.com/ <- never experimented yet

The only problem is the development of Cascading StyleSheet for all those navigators... IE and Firefox doesn't accept each other... so its really hard, and the new IE7 will avoid the CSS Hacks.. Sad ... Lets use Tables... haha

Opera is still quite commercial, it just doesn't have ads.

I'm using Firefox right now. I really enjoy it. IE7 will have to really impress me for me to change back.

I'm definetl sticking with FF for now, and probably for quite a while. FireFox just has so many features, and it works great. I have the IE7 beta installed on my PC, and although it is quite a bit better than previous versions, no way it can replace my sexy FireFox. Especially after you have it customized with all your favorite plugins and extensions.

Last time when i posted here i didn`t explane why i prefer Firefox. It`s because is light for my system, it`s faster than IE .... and because of its name Smile (i`m just kidding) but however i`ve tried a lot of browers but Firefox fix the best to my system

hm, recently i have been stumbling across more and more sites that display strange behaviour with my favorite opera so i'm thinking about changing to firefox completely, but i just got so used to opera and it's always a pain in the a** to get one program to behave like another... Razz

I still use Opera primarily, but when problems are encountered, Firefox is still a great backup.

I have never managed to get over the nauseous feeling in my stomach while using IE, for any reason.

well, personally I use IE , not because I'm in love with it but because it's inertia!
also I don't think that the alternatives are really ANY better that IE , except the minor trivial differences...

a long time ago I've installed opera , only to be annoyed by it and quickly uninstall it *sigh*
though I might try FF in the future , actually the only thing that concerns me is the security aspect in the first place ...the rest is bananas Cool !

FireFox FTFWYDDD. Don't ask. It's just all around pimpamatronic. The tabs are nice, and i mean NICE. that's what originally got me using safari rather than IE. after the whole user agent switching business came into play, i started using FF rather than safari. i found that ff actually worked faster and was extremely similar to safari anyway. it's intuitive, quick, multiplatform, and has a whole bunch of plugins. IE tried to compensate with the competition by incorporating tabs and making the interface 3d-ish, but version 7 is SLOW AS HELL. and as for opera, i hear it's very good, and in some cases better than firefox, and from what i've seen, it looks like netscape, which is nice, but i'm too used to firefox now, so it's FF to stay.

Firefox for sure, the customizability, speed, stability, and security give it a massive advantage over IE.
