Is 1.7.3 the Beta release or something? Firefox hasn't been shouting at me to be updated yet...
 
Mozilla Firefox 1.5.01

Gotta love Firefox's smart ability to download and update itself automatically.
 
Firefox 1.0.7. because I'm too damn lazy to update

i think it was created for security
 
Firefox. What other browser would a sane person use?

THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT.
 
If you know what you are doing, there is no reason to stop using IE. That said, I use IE becuase I find nothing wrong with it and Firefox really offers nothing new to me.
 
Internet Explorer, heathens!


Although I sometimes use firefox if IE has errors loading a page....
 
Internet Explorer.
Firefox takes up to much memory, I make sure to get every part of my memory I can get.
 
Latest version of IE. I've tried Opera and Firefox but I just can't get into it.
 
Firefox on my new computer, IE on my old one.

I think it uses up less. Open 10 tabs in firefox, then open 10 windows in IE.

It's hard to switch from IE to FF on an old comp, but if you get a new comp start afresh by using Firefox from the start. Plus, IE7 sucks.
 
IE... mainly because I've experienced nothing wrong.

The google toolbar is a good enough pop-up blocker... combined with an up-to-date Norton, I see nothing wrong.

I think anyone who accepts MSIE as "good enough" simply doesn't care about his browsing experience. IE is slow, it's riddled with security bugs, and doesn't come close to supporting web standards. IT CAN'T EVEN DISPLAY PNGs PROPERLY! I dare anyone to try to justify that! If you know what you're doing, there's every reason to stop using IE! Even Firefox does tabbed browsing by now!

Not to defend FF's tabbed browsing, really; it's far inferior to Opera's. But then that's no surprise considering how inferior FF is to Opera in so many other ways: zooming, alternate rendering modes (small screen, fit to window width), mouse gestures, cache handling, memory footprint, and, of course, all round speed. That's a non-exhaustive list. (And of course FF is better than IE for each of those except zooming).

Oh yeah, Opera on Linux here. ;)

Wow, That's probably the first list of positive things I've heard anyone say about Opera.
I've heard nothing but bad news about it...
Apparently it's very buggy... but what isn't?

Meh, I might give Opera a whirl.

QFT. I love Opera and can't go back to other inferior browsers--how did I manage without it???

Opera 8 right now, but can't wait for 9! Look at this:
Opera will be releasing a second preview of Opera 9.0 with support for "widgets," BitTorrent downloads, and other modifications

Opera is great. I go between it and Firefox all the time(I get bored of one go to the other).

But Opera is a great browser. Now free, you use to have to pay for it, it basically allows everyone an amazing browsing experince.

The only thing firefox really has over Opera is that Opera dosn't have a major extension database.
