    Default What browser is the best? do you think?

    I use Google Chrome on my desktop and I hated how it would open like 6 exe's in the task manager BUT it was good. rarely crashed.

    On my laptop, Im using Mozilla. It keeps crashing on me! I hate it. In fact its pissing me off where the laptop will be going out the window and replaced with a new one ha.

    I HATE Internet Explorer. It makes this site look horrible, layout wise.


    SO, what do you guys think is the best and why? and I'll use that instead.

    desktop #1 firefox v3.0.8 (never crashes)

    laptop #1 firefox v3.0.8 - I am with you Neolantis, my laptop never crashed until I upgraded to v3, now it crashes regularly....

    Although last night during a win update the entire thing crashed :grumpy:! I will see after the total reinstall how it reacts.

    I have been using firefox for years without any trouble!!!

    I used to use Firefox only but recently I have been playing around with Safari and I am really liking how fast it is on my PC, as well as the lay out

    Google Chrome is the best browser, when i first downloaded it, my internet was running at a lighting speed, i even checked my speed from ip-details and it was normal too..But the only one advantage with firefox is that it has more add ons, which makes things much easier..and for search engine i use Google its pretty good..

    I personally love Firefox myself, as I've never really liked IE. You may want to give FF another shot as I've recently had a number of updates for it, and I haven't had any issues whatsoever.

    I've also been stuck on FireFox because I'm used to it and I like using the Firebug plugin for website stuff.

    I would have to say Firefox 99.9999%, I love the plug-ins, the way I can access my bookmarks, the plug-ins are fantastic, tons of themes, add-on's and a rather large following gives developers many reasons to develop very good applications.

    As for Internet Explorer IE8, and/or IE9, it has come a long way, but still needs improvements.
    I couldn't even post them here too many to be honest

    On a side note, the OP started this thread on 04-09-2009, notice how Firefox is the choice of several users even 2+yrs ago

    Chrome Rocks, very fast and faster than the latest FireFox for sure. IMHO
