Poll: Poll: What Internet Browser do you use and Why?

[Vrach]

Firefox. Wanted to use Chrome, but the mofos don't give an alternative to tabbed browsing (and said they don't intend to because tabbed browsing is "so much better" >.> ).

 

[theSovietConnection]

Chrome, because one day my Firefox randomly said it wasn't closed and wouldn't let me open new browser windows, even when every function related to it I could think of had been shut down in the Task Manager.

 

[Alfador_VII]

Chrome because it's not as buggy or as slow as the others and it doesn't have tool bars cluttering up half the page.

Firefox 4 is heavily "inspired" by Chrome, it's not quite as minimal as Chrome, but much cleaner than FF3 or IE

 

[Brandon237]

Chrome, it's simply and only once has it pulled a dick-move on me. Although that was yesterday so right now I'm not the happiest I have ever been with it.

 

[Feystar]

Google chrome, because internet explorer has too many problems and opera isn't well supported enough. I'd rather be using opera though.

 

[Argtee]

Firefox.
Internet Explorer was crashing a lot.

I haven't tried any other web browser because Firefox works fine for me.

 

[ActionDan]

Firefox because it's safer than most other browers, especially Internet Explorer.

 

[Feste]

At home I use Firefox because I have it customized to my liking and it works solidly so I'd rather not go through the hassle of switching things around.

At work, where the computer is crazy slow, I use Chrome because it works faster and requires less from the PC.

 

[Queen Michael]

Firefox because it's safe.

 

[Blackadder51]

Safari Public Beta 4 (Im a windows user.)

Why?

As the tabs are in the top top bar, the bookmarked sites are easy to access and its simplistic.

 

[Zem]

Firefox because it's safer than most other browers, especially Internet Explorer.

Pretty much this ^

 

[Lt.Snuffles]

I use IE, mainly because its saved passwords i can't remember.

 

[ProfessorLayton]

Firefox because I tried Chrome and it had too many weird add-ons that just cluttered the screen. I like Firefox because it works and that's really all I need. Plus I can open tabs and not have my browser crash, unlike Internet Explorer.

 

[Kiefer13]

Firefox. I tried Chrome, but I personally didn't like it. Firefox works and I've never had any problems with it, so that's good enough.

 

[theriddlen]

Opera.

Looks better than other browsers, has gestures, and is intuitive.

I tried others, but Firefox is ugly and too much like IE and Chrome is designed idiotically, i never know what browser will do if click something.

 

[Wolfram23]

Tom's Hardware recently did a browser round up. In terms of loading websites, loading the browser with extra tabs, and general memory usage the top two which performed very close were Opera and Chrome followed closely by Safari, then FireFox and then way, way behind was Internet Explorer.

I went from FF to Opera, so far so good.

[Orwellian37]

Firefox or Chrome

 

[Breaker deGodot]

Firefox, as I don't like Chrome's tab system, and don't even get me started on IE and Safari!
