Internet Explorer, never needed anything else and i rarely bother to install a different browser, though i tried several others in the past. (Which i never reinstalled after a format)

I used to use Opera for years but switched to Chrome recently. It is missing a couple of features that I would like it to have but I love the speed and minimalistic approach/appearance of Chrome.

Opera was nice, but clunky and when it lagged down, it lagged down and it took the whole browser with it when it crashed. VERY annoying when you had a whole load of fresh porn open.

Chrome is pretty awsome, but I'd like it to have the RSS ticker from Firefox and that it'd work when I try to download things from here:

I used Opera the last 5 years and still do.

Light, fast, polyvalent, and stable "haven't seen a crash since Opera 10.00 is out" And I really love the way you can personalize everything on it.

If that ain't a "minimalistic appearance" ..

I too have submitted to our new internet overlords henceforth only known as Google. In other words, I use Chrome - It's a slick, speedy browser with a very unobtrusive user interface that is in my mind perfect for browsing sites like flickr and Pbase. But I have to agree with MehMan, certain sites just won't load under Chrome (whilst they load flawlessly in Firefox), this is especially common with download links - But still, it doesn't happen often enough (not even one out of a hundred sites) to make me turn back to Firefox, a browser which to me now feels similar to how IE felt after a few weeks of using Firefox.

I use both Firefox 3.5.3 aswell as Chrome unstable.

Because Firefox is the more common alternative on Internet Explorer I use it more frequent than Chrome.

I'm a big fan of Google's philosophy of evolving the Web. But with Firefox 3.7 coming soon, they'll have to push it real hard.

Firefox. Far more user-friendly and nice looking than IE. Perfect. No need for me to try any other browser right now.

How would you know unless you tried the others? :p

If Firefox screws up royally.

Might give Chrome a go though, sounds like it's a solid bit of kit.

I can vouch for the above post that claimed that going from Chrome to FFx is like going from FFx to IE... I also found that the amount of crashes I had dramatically dropped when I switched to Chrome, and that was true of both Windows and Linux...

It isn't quite as feature-rich as Firefox, but that will probably be addressed in time. I remember using Firefox when it was still version 0.6 ... People forget that it didn't exactly get all it's features overnight either.

Firefox here, and if it ever lets me down, i would go for Opera (still cant trust 100% on Chrome after they were gathering personal information on their first release)

The irony here is that Google gathers as much information from you when you use Firefox as it does when you use Chrome...

Firefox + NoScript all the way, which by the way means Google does NOT get to gather lots of info since I simply block out google-analytics.com :P
