Default Mozilla, Explorer, Opera

I always wondered which interenet browser is the best for your computer?

i have tried many internet browers and all of them are really different. I mainly

use mozilla firefox the most becuz i think that it is dependable. it comes with

pop up blocker and also has more script enable. i tried to use Opera but it was

confusing for me to use. I also use Interenet Explorer for many years when i did

not know of Mozilla yet. I always had to download the pop up blocker from MSN

becuz i always had to reformat my computer becuz of unknown viruses from sites.

I want ur opinion on whether which internt browser is the best to use and which one

also has the virus protector

>>>thanks

i have been using the internet for now 8 years.

i would definitely tell you to use Firefox if you like to browse the web with ease

if you are a webmaster & like to track differenet things then go for Internet explorer.

both of them aree good for browsing but firefox has many addons than Internet explorer.

it wwoould be better if you start a poll & see how many people vote for Mozilla firefox or internet exploerr.

all the best & have a great day my freind

update the post regularly ok ......

I've been using Mozilla ever since I found it many years ago. Its just awesome for so many reasons...

From what I've heard and read it is much more secure than Internet Explorer so you have to worry less about viruses and such.

It's easier to use and was the one who came up with tabbed browsing before Internet Explorer ripped it.

It has quite a few third party applications to enhance it's many features.

Firefox is the only way to go. Internet Explorer (even version 7) is utter crap. It took them 9 years to get tabs in after Firefox had them, their security is still poor, IE crashes every second time I try to use it, I just gave up on it. Opera is better, but for the novice user it is very confusing. It has many different features, but all of these features Firefox can have and more, with its amazing Firefox extensions system. Firefox not only outperforms other browsers in terms of interface, ease of use, funcationality, and performance, it has been proven to load pages faster too.

Firefox FTW!

I tried Opera and it was really weird. The layout is strange. IE. Well what can we say? ActiveX install stuff by itself. Crashes after loading a image up with 999x999 pixels

I am also a supporter for Mozilla Firefox. I also use Mozilla Thunderbird as a Mail client. They are cool, relyable, and easy to use. The only thing is that some plugins somethimes crash but i relly on them.

Me too support firefox. Its easier to use even for beginners and has many features that internet explorer don't have. I have been using it for more than two years and still stick to it. I tried many other browsers like Opera, Maxthon, and many others but Firefox is the best of them all. With firefox, you change the themes, and enhance its functionality through the add ons available for free. The built in error console and page info facilities are much helpful for a web designer like me. It can also be used to save images which cannot be saved using the right click -> save image as option.

The copy link and save link options are also incredible....

mosilla is the best to me, just because of how easy it is to install addons, and how easy everything is. it also handles the sites the best, theres only a few sites that require you to have internet explorer.

I use Firefox after using IE6 for a while, because it's so easy to use, I like the way it does tabs, you can customise it really easily through extensions and it's just so much more secure than IE is. For example IE7 still has the bug where the webpage can be redirected by a jpg. And it's so much easier to get spyware on IE

I'm not using FF. That's because for some strange reason my IE(7) can't display Javascript anymore. FF is saver, more secure, renders faster and is open source thus it gives you the ability to get all of these plug-ins, but still I prefer IE7. It's just far easier to use. I'd seriously pay 100 $ just to be able to use it..

I use firefox but earlier I was so surprised that internet explorer displayed my page right and mozilla didn't. Ya, Internet Explorer is getting better the firefox still kicks internet explorers arse. Also, IE is ugly. LoL.

Reason I don't like FF. It's ugly.. Technically FF is better. But IE is nicer to use in my opinion. Though FF does have Fire FTP, and in my opinion that's a huge plus. The only reason I'm not using IE (aside from the fact that my IE doesn't work right. Javascript somehow doesn't work anymore for IE).

I've been using both IE and FF...never use Opera..

I found that Firefox is much comfortable to use compared to IE..

but if you running a site, you have to consider both in terms of design because I did research about traffics that come to my site, 75% of them is from IE..

they still remain popular though

I go for firefox. Its faster than IE(I felt so). Anyway i have all this browser installed my system. And for regular browsing I use Firefox.
Opera is not so bad considering the fact that it as a integrated email client with it. But not as good as Firefox..

I haven't used anything other than Firefox (or occasionally Safari on the Mac) in so many years I forget sometimes that there's anything else out there. When I talk to people in my baseball sim league, many of whom aren't very advanced with computers, I'm amazed at how many people use IE just because it's what is pre-installed on their pc. A few even try to argue the point that IE is better. I just shake my head in amazement.

I couldn't live without my Firefox add-ons...currently I have these installed:

1-ClickWeather
Adblock Plus ***
Better Gmail2
Fasterfox
Foxmarks Boomark Synchronizer ***
Google Toolbar for Firefox
NoScript ***
Tab Mix Plus

The ones with the *** I highly recommend for any user of Firefox...the rest are a matter of personal choice.

Definitely Mozilla Firefox
Changeable thems, loads of 3rd party addons, good security. Always there.
Safari is OK, but does make a computer vunerable.
