Opera. 'cos IE is internet suicide and firefox takes ages to load. I still have all of the above (except safari) because im a web designer and i need to test my sites. Funnily enough, IE causes the most problems with web design

Why should IE be so bad? I use it and never had any problems.

Yeah, IE causes the most problems in web design because it cant correctly display HTML.

Firefox here, because it runs faster then IE, and i like the tabbed browing thingie.

I dont really want to get into a browser debate, but this is a short version:
Internet explorer renders HTML wrong. It has security flaws, lacks features, and basically makes a bad job of web browsing. For the developer side of this, it means I have to have totally clean code which takes damned ages to validate, and since most people on the web use anything as long as it comes with their computer, im stuck with it.

I'm happy with IE. It does everything I ask of it and probably a bit more.

I did use Opera ages ago though and that was quite good. I won't use Firefox on principle.

Nothing wrong with IE I think, but I prefer Firefox for the extensions and the tabbed browsing is nice. :)

IE: does what I need it too. And I figure the worst ol' billy and his mates are going to do is install more of his MS crap.
With these 3rd party people I have no idea what they could do with their evil ways. :D

I use the Maxthon Browser. It has tabbed browsing and some other cool things like different skins, mouse gestures and it's a bit faster than IE.

Crash ;)

Opera... it eats less RAM and opens tabs -not more windows- when you click a link.. for me it's great  :)
