    Firefox all the time! I tried switching back to IE and realized that I was dependent on the tabs feature on FF (it's just not the same on IE :p)

    but you use a MAC! ;)

    AND you were using IE6 ;);)

    It's a good thing this question is asked every 2.3 weeks, I change my mind on my browser during that time span.

    I'm now using FF on my LT. IE7 was beginning to wig out big time, had no less than 27 crashes last month on account of FLASH9.ocx module.

    IE is still my preferred browser to use, though I do occasionally use Firefox.

    My Firefox doesn't allow me to stream WMV videos properly, so I use IE for that. Other than watching WMV, Firefox is just all around better, many sites look better in FF also.

    Only time I end up using IE is when Flash stuff doesn't work in FF. Some designers are outright stupid to think that all the people on the planet will use just IE. My wife uses IE - she is not a techie and she asks me how do I have so many browsers in one window ;)

    IE 7.0...I love it but will probably switch to Firefox this fall because of the add-ons.

    firefox, for sure, no doubt about it, IE just can't compete with it in any way shape or form

    If you're still using IE:
    1. You're really dumb.
    2. You're missing out a lot.

    When I installed firefox, I saw no point in changing browsers too...until...

    ....untill FF ate all your ram?? :eek:

    I've actually escaped the(my) usual memory issue(s) since I switched back to FF this most recent time :cool:

    I will say this though, @ least for me, FF is 12-18% slower when opening multiple tabs and tends to bog more then IE...so....nothing is perfect!

    Firefox for me!

    I used to be a massive fan of Internet Explorer, but I decided to give Firefox a go and I just loved it....

    Been using it ever since :p!
