Personally for me, it is Firefox on my normal computer and opera on my U3 flash drive. But I would like to know what is your favorites. Why are they your favorites? What features do they have that you enjoy? Why don't you like some of the other ones?
NOTE: If there are some I forgot in the poll, please say so.

Google Chrome.

Nice and minimalist. And fast.
I found to be just a tad slower than firefox. It is nice and simple, however.

Firefox, it has a spell checker and graphical websites seem to like it better than internet explorer or safari.

I stuck with IE for a long time but finally installed Firefox last December.

Best thing I ever did. Well not really, but it was an improvement.

I haven't noticed that at all, but Firefox chews away at the computer's memory, and I'm someone who like's multiple things running at the same time (you wouldn't even believe the amount of tabs and windows I have open right now) so it's ideal for me.

I like firefox for two reasons:

First, it has a very 'old school' interface and I definitely prefer that to the newer verisons of IE. I'm the kind of person who changes their theme to Windows Classic regardless of the operating system.

Second, the add-ons and most importantly one add-on called 'Zotero'. If you don't know about I would highly recommend it. It's basically a glorified bookmark manager but it makes internet resarch so much easier and it allows you to bulid up a library of reference material which is always available.

I use standard Internet Explorer, it works perfectly fine. I use firefox on the few sites that can't be view with explorer. Otherwise, I don't see any reason to change, explorer is fast enough (certainly haven't noticed a difference when using other browsers) and has all features I need (a multitab function, no need for any fancy "plugins" or whatnot).

Everybody should really try google chrome. I use both firefox, chrome and opera on different pcs and for different usages... Opera runs really fast but has a tendency to crash. Firefox runs about everything but soaks up a lot of memory and takes a lot of time to start on my school laptop. Plus it can be a bit slow.

Google Chrome is really something different. It start momentarily and does not take as much memory as firefox, it runs much better and faster than firefox, have a really neat start page, and also has all the add-ons you need right of the bat. You should try it.

opera is awesome... but hopefully people dont realise that, since then with popularity more idiots will find security holes in it.

I like firefox for the built in spell check. That said, I use IE most of the time unless I'm on my linux system.
