I use firefox with NoScript, I like it because its user friendly, its secure, its more stable, and it looks better.

When I was stuck using a computer without FF I had to use IE and goooood loooooooooord....
It crashed twice before I could check my email and it struggled with more than 6 tabs open.

I will never use Internet Exploder again...
Hell I would stop using anything Windows if the alternatives... were more... appealing...

I use Chrome, as it is quite fast, and I just prefer the whole style of it.

At school though, I'll use Firefox. I usually go to the library every morning to work on whatever I need to, so I feel it's worth mentioning.

I use Firefox, IE, and Safari somewhat interchangeably, all of them have advantages and disadvantages.

Safari is basically just IE modded for the Mac, and it's almost as bad.

I'll definitely give Chrome at least a try, once they finish the Mac version.

First of all, typing full words is a great asset. Sorry, but when people type 'rly' it greatly bothers me.
But I like firefox, after trying all of the above choices, it was the fastest and most reliable for me. Chrome is a close second.

Firefox. Kicks the buttocks of IE and safari and the add ons seal the deal. That they tend to listen to what the community tells them, or that users quickly develop patches if anything does go wrong is the icing on the cake.

I'd pick FF or Opera. They're both fast and FF has some hXc safety features.

As a web developer, I've grown to like Firefox's javascript errors over IE's (ERROR! Object expected! I am useless!) but it's got its own quirks. I have yet to test much on chrome though, so Firefox will remain as my favorite for now.

Firefox.

For me it's been the most reliable and usually the fastest. It's also compatible with EVERYTHING (perhaps an overstatment, but it never bogs down or flat out crashes the way iExploreer seems to).

i have used all these browsers exept for safari.
i now use chrome because its just as fast as firefox and in my opinion even safer as i havent had a single virus warning with crome and with firefox i had several in just a month.
been using it since it was released (ok its a beta but come on everything by google is a beta they just do that to make sure there are no isues with the amarican law)
i would go for crome but i sugest you just try as much as possible becouse i think its very personal what kind of browser you use.

I use Firefox and have just started using Chrome (Probably for the same reason as everyone else). Although, FF does take up a lot of memory. Om nom nom's mah RAM.
100meg of RAM in a world where 2gig is the norm ain't really that much is it now? I use FF my only issue with it to date is the launch time when you first use it after booting your system, other than that quick, customisable and secure.

Will take a look at Chrome once it moves out of Beta.

Firefox for now. Chrome still has some bugs I come across during normal use. So untill those get fixed it'll stay Firefox.

FireFox. Fast and secure. And I like the layout, plus you have addons if you'd want them.

IE is the devil's work.
