        I voted for chrome and added Opera to the list (Opera would get my vote if we were talking win2k and older only)

            I think Chrome has potential....but I refuse to use a browser made by a company that got miserably rich off spam....I won't use anything made by them....with the exception of the occasional search of course...

              I concur with the spam part. I don't use gmail because of the high spam amount, but Chrome seems more secure then Firefox in my opinion.

                SRWare Iron (Google Chrome clone that doesn't "phone home") and Waterfox (Firefox in 64Bit, working around the 2GB limitation of 32Bit programs like the regular Firefox).
                Every now and then I use Opera too, even though the default UI is a total pain in the ass.. needs a lot of modding and removing crap to be usable.

                In theory, I should select Chrome or Firefox, but I decided to use "other" instead.

                  you can get alphas of ff 64 bit. I have it on my win7 box. VERY few problems. I actually have MORE problems with ff 12 32 bit on my laptop then ff 15a on my desktop

                    If I had to choose one browser for the rest of my life, I think it would be Firefox.

                    It sure has its own set of issues, but it would win on features because the sheer number of add-ons and all manner of customisability.

                    I like being able to change things to exactly how I want them, not how some stupid developer decided I should want them.


                    However, I use all the major browsers fairly equally (and some of the not-so-major) depending on what I feel like at the time, I don't really have an all time favourite. Maybe IE since I've been using it the longest.

                                its a nice little webkit browser that uses less resources than ff

                                Sometimes you need to break shit to fix it.... Thats why my lawnmower doesn't have a deadman switch or engine brake anymore

                                  Anything uses fewer resources than FailureFox!

                                  Even IdiotExploder 6 is less demanding, at least til malware takes it over!

                                      See cappy. Also note multiple, pre-deduped "revisions" of hosts files.

                                      Isn't a hosts file so much better than "loading shit, then hiding shit?" I speak of none other than AdUnBlock Minus.

                                      der Google pays ABP to let certain things through. The sheep will deny this, since someone claims to "do no evil," but the non-sheep see right through the bullshit...

                                        I´m a confessing IE user for more than 15 years.

                                        I see no reason to believe that the Mozilla Foundation or Google is going to spy on me on a smaller scale than Microsoft does. As long as I´m running Windows Microsoft is probably able to spy no matter what browser I´m using.

                                        I didn´t have too many troubles related to security issues of the Internet Explorer.

                                        For browsing "less secure" sites I switch to Debian / Firefox anyway.
