What browser do you normally use?

I forgot to mention that I use MSIE 6. I have most browsers installed on my machine for development reasons but I prefer IE for the reasons mentioned earlier.

I'm using IE6. Tried Firefox for a while but couldn't get use to it. I did find a suprising results from my websites (see my sig) though ...almost 40% of the surfers use Firefox. IE only has about 8-10% advantage

I use IE 6 never had a hitch yet as for no built in pop up blocker windows xp service pack 2 includes it. Had to remove my sevice pack 2 to many probs but my Ip service gives me a free ad blocker.

Yeah, real browsers that allow you to customize your internet experience?

Wow you sound like an M$ marketing guy!

So I use IE... but then I build some stuff with php and CSS 2. For some reason FF and Opera both screw up CSS2 - especially border details and floats. If they would fix that, I would use them more.

I love Opera 9.0 for its looks and features. I don't like the compatibility problems, which range from minor irritants to major disasters, though. Still for what I do, it serves me well ........ well, mostly...... maybe.

I also use Firefox with the embedded IE extension. I like many things about it, as well. My wife uses it because the change proxy extension allows her access to academic library catalogues and e-journals -- configuring the same in IE 6 would have proven a larger although not insurmountable challenge.

I have no hate on for IE and still use it frequently. I just feel that it is more of a target because of its widespread use/popularity. IE 7 beta looks nice. I have taken it on a number of test drives -- good looking, nice new features.

Basically for anything of a "questionable security" nature I must do, I use Opera or Firefox. For 100% completely safe things I use IE.

I'm also using Opera 9. I've been using Opera for the past 9 months or so and love it. The only real problem I have is when it opens a PDF in the browser then locks up and the images on kotaku.com don't display properly. I use firefox on occasion and never use IE 'cause I think it sucks.

Hey Magic Person:

Tools - Preferences - Advanced - Downloads - PDF - Edit



Firefox has the same problems with Acrobat, but there is the PDF extension.

Ah, well I noticed yesterday that a vote had brought this one back up, so even though my original was for IE6, these days for myself I'm mostly using Konqueror, unless I'm at work.

I use Mozilla. I can print off a page and it stays perfectly centered unlike IE
on game cheats and other stuff off internet.

Firefox, IE, Opera is what I use, and each one has its own advantages. IE is my primary browser though

I use Internet Explorer 6 ... have tried other browsers, but this one does all I need it to do.
