  Ok ive been having really bad problems as your all probably aware of and im now having to use SAFARI as my web browser instead of my usual way on the Internet Explorer.....so i was wondering what browsers you guys/girls use? i know i could just google a few and research them but i figured that none of you experience any problems that were aware of so id rather trust the judgement of people i know.....so just let me know which one you use and a simple description of its best features and if youve ever had any problems with it or not.....if possible if you think i might like the browser your using then please post me a link too..... safari is good but i just dont like the way that it is slow and im not too sure about the way it looks in general.....

Personally I prefer IE7 but lots of my friends use FireFox. As a secondary browser I use Opera. Opera is known for being fast and it had tabs years before IE. Opera also has a brilliant download manager. The only problem I find with using other browsers than IE is that lots of sites still requires IE to work properly.

I use firefox, it's fast reliable/safe and has some really good add ons. a few u should try are cooliris (a 3d pic and video serch engine), flagfox (shows where the server for the site u are currently on is i.e i can see this site is hosted in denmark), and for those who do web design (like myself) firebug is a really good tool for reading a websites html code. Opera is also good but imo not as good as firefox. Im yet to try google chrome so if someone has a view on that i'd like to hear it. As for IE it's a bit slow and doesnt have the safety or add ons that firefox has but is easy to use and integrates well with windows live.

Yeah, I prefer Firefox3 best. I never had problems with it. Plus, it has new and special features. You can download safe add-ons like applications and themes. It has a download manager and 1-click bookmarking. Check it out and download it. You'll see the difference. Hope I helped. BTW, this is the link for downloading Firefox for free: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/?from=getfirefox
