  Old  The Browsers - Fight Of The Century

Well, I did not see a recent thread so I thought I might as well start this one. This thread is about your internet browser. Which one do you use, which one do you like, which one do you hate, and why? The browsers that are going to battle each other are the following.

- Internet Explorer
-Firefox
-Opera
-Other

I was not sure what other browsers were out there that you all used so therefore the selection Other is reasonable. Please keep the flaming down, dont go after anyone, its uncalled for. This is a clean debate, so people, get posting.

Regards

Firefox is the best, due to speed, plug ins, skins, etc.

Opera is second, for similar reasons.

IE is just **** that has its own code standards.

I will probably be on my own here but....IE! I have never used firefox, mozilla or whatever these other browsers are called, i have always used internet explorer and will continue to do so until i find a reason why i shouldn't. It has never caused me any problems in about ten years!

Without all the "omgs" what is actually wrong with it? It loads fast for me and provides me with everything i need when browsing the internet. I have never understood the vendetta for microsoft, windows media player and ie and fail to see why/how their products are bad?

There products are all good but IE, god they might aswell give up with it and throw it away in the trashcan. I used to be fan of IE until somone told me to get mozilla and I never went back after I turned the pipelining on
The differences I noticed are speed, spyware doesnt install as much in firefox like mywaysearch bar etc..

Never had a problem with IE, im on a 11mbps connection and it doesnt slow me down at all. The only reason firefox is faster is because it doesnt load the images before it loads the page, it shows ugly preview images and then it loads, i would rather just wait an extra 2 seconds. And plus, most of the sites on the web are coded to IE standards so why try to screw with it.

Who cares if my browser has a pretty skin? Definetly not I.Tabbed browsing? how about looking down at your Windows toolbar and clicking on the window you want, same exact thing.
