Hi guys, I'm using Firefox and I don't think I will go back to internet explorer. However, I noticed some of my friends still use internet explorer. I'm just wondering what do you guys using?
Since Apple's safari is now available for windows, how good is it compare to Firefox?

IE 7 here ...

Browsers are really like everything else in the world. It goes in cycles. I remember when Netscape was the one and then it became slow and unstable and a memory hog and then IE was on top. Mozilla is the brash upstart. IE7 has made significant improvements over 6, but I don't think it's good enough. MS did just enough to catch up.

This time around there are a few other players in the browser market. Opera looks pretty good, but I have had quite a few issues with incompatable sites - even more than with Mozilla.

I haven't used Safari yet. I might check it out tomorrow.

Firefox here (solely for its UI).

As long as you don't use IE, you can't really go wrong with any modern browser.

Firefox user here as well. Use IE at work because I have to for certain tasks on our intranet.

I use "Opera", and really like it. I have had only one compatablity issue with the Sprint "my account" part of their site.

At work we are forced to use MS IE, in my case it is version 7.

Firefox for me also.

I've used IE6, IE7 Opera, but I always find myself crawling back to Firefox after experimenting with other browsers

Firefox. I'm just slightly annoyed to find some websites still not fully supported. In which case, I right click on Tab -> "Switch rendering engine" (IE Tabs add-on) and use IE7 in a Firefox tab

Problem solved.

I use firefox, and for all those situation where you need or want IE you can get a plug-in to run IE inside of firefox.

Whoa. Thats pretty nifty. I'll have to get that.

Firefox, FTW! You can use ietab to view ie only pages inside firefox and all the extensions for firefox make it my favorite. Greasemonkey is an awesome extension that lets you run your own scripts and adblock lets you block ads.

Opera owns all. There are only a handful of sites that don't work, but same with Firefox, but it's slower, it's pop-up blocker isn't as good, and it sucks in comparison. Especially the latest version of Opera. Oh, it also doesn't suck your resources dry...

Opera owns, always has, and always will.

I use almost the exact same Extensions.

Not the "British English Dictionary" though. I use a Chinese - English Dictionary. Who needs to have British translated to English, anyway?

I use Maxthon ... kinda like IE but better.

I downloaded the dictionary in hope of having Firefox spellcheck in British English

I don't think it is a translator.
