I've been using Opera for about ten years now.  It's fast, innovative, secure, and there's no need to download heaps of add-ons that need updating every time your browser updates, as it does everything out of the box.  It's also by far the easiest to navigate with the keyboard, if, like me, you prefer to use the mouse as little as possible.  There is the odd website that won't play with Opera (can't remember the last time that happened to me, though), so I keep Firefox on hand just in case.



I've also had a look at Comodo Dragon, which is based on Google Chrome, but much more secure.  (It is Comodo, after all!)  It seems to be a good one.

Firefox is my browser of choice.



The most important reason is the add-ons. I'm a developer, and I have TONS of links and shortcuts, and the DEV toolbar. IE also has a DEV toolbar, but man, it sucks. ;)

With AdBlock, NoScript and Stylish installed, I also got used to no ads, anywhere.



I don't use Chrome, because the way it works just ticks me off. Tabs and menus are all in the wrong place.



Opera is OK, because it has a torrent download system built in.



And everybody knows IE is a dinosaur that needs to lay down in a tarpit and die.



have all of these browsers, plus Safari and OffByOne on my system, because I am a developer. I keep 'em up to date, give 'em a go every now and then, but for my everyday browsing, I keep coming back to Firefox. It's what I'm used to, despite it being a memory hog, despite Flash crashing all of the time (especially here on Yahoo)... I just like how it works and feels.

I like Google chrome the best. Internet explorer is clunky and slow, Firefox is slow and annoying, safari for PC is slow.

Google chrome is fast, simple, easy to use, and has some really useful apps and extensions.

I used to use IE but then my brother put a content advisory password.
