Sargentwhitey · Feb 25, 2005, 11:14 PM

Mozilla... of course.

No_Style · Feb 25, 2005, 11:20 PM

Opera and Maxthon (Which is IE based)..

kelticknight · Feb 25, 2005, 11:21 PM

firefox by mozilla

Zelig · Feb 25, 2005, 11:27 PM

Primarily Opera, I stay up to date with Firefox though.

TJ- · Feb 26, 2005, 12:21 AM

Opera and Firefox.. that reminds me better update

nauticus · Feb 26, 2005, 12:31 AM

Opera and Mozilla here.

md5 · Feb 26, 2005, 12:45 AM

Maxthon and Opera (in that order)

BiGBrOwNPimpsta · Feb 26, 2005, 02:27 AM

im fine with IE, too lazy to switch. ive been with IE solidly since 4.0 came out

Dom · Feb 26, 2005, 02:40 AM

Firefox 1.0.1 and IE6 SP2

mkk · Feb 26, 2005, 03:04 AM

Avant Browser (uses IE core). It has everything I want in a browser, without the need to look for several plugins like I would have to in order to get Firefox to fit my taste. Latest build 131 has issues though so try build 126 instead, whomever would like to give it a try.

shortstuff · Feb 27, 2005, 12:27 AM

Nothing but Mozilla here. I only use IE for my windows updates.

nitrousoxide52 · Feb 27, 2005, 12:59 AM

Firefox, my IE homepage is windows updates, and thats all I use IE for

Ditto

riles9262 · Feb 27, 2005, 02:15 AM

Opera at home, firefox at work.

swimtech · Feb 27, 2005, 07:23 PM

Internet Explorer, updates current, mainly because it works for everything everyone here at home does without me tweaking, etc., and also (admittedly) because I'm just plain familiar with it...

kemet64 · Feb 27, 2005, 10:23 PM

Im an Avant Browser myself. Love it, has just about everythign I could want.

Senor_Mota · Feb 28, 2005, 12:03 AM

IE, because it's always been reliable for me. FireFox is good, too.

**dj_stick** · Feb 28, 2005, 02:00 AM

Logla · Feb 28, 2005, 08:12 AM

Firefox although I'm slowly converting to other browsers cos FireFox seems to have more problems than I wish to put up with

Powercolour · Feb 28, 2005, 06:12 PM

Yeah i use macs, why? you got one? safari is one of their browsers, isnt bad, some security issues, but I guess most browsers have security issues even the wonderful firefox, which had 17 holes with V1. But its "cooler" than IE so no one cares, right ?

Powercolour · Feb 28, 2005, 06:25 PM

just that safari had no votes.

Zardon · Feb 28, 2005, 06:34 PM

maxthon is a corker. one of my favourites.

Logla · Feb 28, 2005, 10:15 PM

It appears you have converted me to a new browser Z. Thankyou.

I was beginning to get pissed off to the extreme with FireFox. For a kickoff it doesn't work on DH properly. I have tried to tweak it to be able to do copy/paste functions and sometimes it works but mostly doesn't. Then theres the bloody find function. Instead of using control-F only, they decided to code in the / key and the ' key to automatically bring up the find bar.

I'm not going back to IE until they introduce tabbed browsing (and yes it is a very important function for some people). I hate Opera - just cant get used to it and so Maxthon now seems the logical choice. No doubt I'll hate this too by the end of the week

Zardon · Feb 28, 2005, 11:36 PM

You are a hard man to please Logla - lets hope your future wife knows the score

. As for firefox its a decent browser but its showing more quirks lately than it used to and to be honest with the recent security problems i feel they are getting a little sloppy with the releases, however i use it along with all the other browsers for testing purposes but its certainly not my main browser.

Opera is a great browser especially if you go for the new V8 beta, I doubt you will get a better browser technically but yes there are some issues with some displaying, nothing major but most sites tend to cater for their biggest audience, that being the out of box IE users.

I know most people seem to hate IE, and yeah it has problems but no more than any other browser, in fact I always use it to get a "reference point" when working on a page as this is how it will look to most people. The one weakness is its lack of tabbed browsing and the other goodies associated with firefox and opera........ enter maxthon, the free GUI for IE code, a redone IE2. its excellent.

doxology83 · Mar 1, 2005, 01:39 AM

I use firefox, it is way faster and the different skins make it so there is almost a look of anyone. Interface is slick. I couldn't live without a tabbed browser.

pr0digal jenius · Mar 1, 2005, 04:24 AM

maxthon here...thanks to Z and md5 for pointing it out.

It's everything firefox tried to be, without breaking the IE compatibility like they did
