I run software update daily on Mac OS X. Thus, it can be assumed that I'm using the latest version of Safari.

I track Debian unstable and update daily. Thus, it can be assumed that I'm using the latest version of Konq and Firefox.

It's small (unlike IE), fast (unlike IE), secure (unlike IE), implements standards correctly (unlike IE) and Bill Gates gets no money from it ;-) (unlike IE) Instead you support open source development, which means you're supporting free software, not expensive proprietry crap like everything Microsoft have ever released.

There's a ton of small things that make it much less annoying to use than IE (like the back button actually using the cache, or the find feature, excellent popup blocker, straight to desktop downloads, etc.)

Anything else is for failures.

FireFox for a long time, tabbed browsers are the best, and just the fact that I have a plug in that changes the browsers name to random crap like NessaHolics Seaslug is great.

At school I use MSIE 6.0.2800.1106.xpsp2.031208-2000

At home I use either that or Nutscrape 7.1

But you make Firefox sound so appealing! :)

IE 7 here at the moment, but its crashing way too frequently for my liking
so I'm thinking of going back to Firefox. My connection is kind of slow too!

Firefox 3.0 here, brand new as of this past week.

I highly recommend it, and I love the new feature that allows the user to move the vertical scroll bar permanently to the left side of the screen.  It keeps me from having to reach across the screen, blocking my own view, to scroll up and down.

I'm using Firefox 3, and although I have a crash now and then, it will start right back up where it was when it crashed instead of forgetting all the twenty-something tabs I had open.

I was a tad apprehensive when I saw you use the C-word Dustin, but having
just experienced my first crash with Firefox 3, I have to say I was impressed
greatly to be able to return right where I left off. Never seen IE do that :dr evil:

I was using Firefox 3 for a while but I just don't like it anymore. Its crashing on me all the time and it goes super slow while my other browsers go at normal speed with my connection. I just stick to safari now. IE can just go die I hate IE.

Title: Which browser do you use?
Post by: zurielshimon on July 18, 2008, 09:06:11 pm

I haven't gotten to use it on a Mac.  But what I like most about Firefox 3 is the ability to move the scroll bar to the left side of the screen so I'm not blocking the screen with my hand when I scroll down a page.

A Tech Note Here about Firefox 3.0 - 3.0.1  Only

It was so slow that I had to revert back to IE
while I was researching the FIX for FF.

Seems they decided that IPv6 was in use
and so they made it the default,   WRONG!!!!!

So, here it is and FF is now fast again.


Open a blank tab in FF,
type in about:config and enter

type ip in the filter box

look for: network.dns.disableIPv6;false

double click it and turn it true

exit FF, reboot your computer and give it a try

It worked great for me.

;I got this fix from an IT pal in the U.S; FF is running like a train here now!

This is all so very strange because I haven't noticed it running slow at all.  I'm now on 3.0.1, but I haven't noticed anything about Firefox being any slower than version 2.  Maybe it's just my hardware setup; I don't know.

Firefox 3 on this PC and Opera on my old PC, I left IE years ago, I don't know how you few diehards can stand it.  :?

It really pisses me off tho when I run across a site where some stupid little feature won't work right in Firefox. That's the only reason I still keep IE around. :razz:

I've had it before, and it worked for stuff like that at least 80% of the time. I haven't downloaded it again since I've reinstalled everything, tho.

I was using Safari 5.0.3, but since I've switched to Opera, there's been no looking back (except when hyper-links load in Safari on my Mac Mini).
Opera (now using version 11), has proved to be a much more secure browser, making mallware & spyware a thing of the past. Safe Surfing here  8)
