With Mozilla Firefox 3 and Opera 9.5 being released, I wonder which internet browser you use?
I personally favour the newest version of Opera, as it's both the fastest and most secure browser on the Windows platform. I also prefer the new Opera because the new design is awesome.  Safari is overall the safest browser, but only when using it on a computer with Mac software. The most 'standard' browser, Internet explorer, I belive is slow (difference between Mozilla and Opera is barely noticeable, but when using IE there is a distinct difference from the two aforementioned) and unsecure.
So, how about you? Which do you use, and why? Mozilla, Opera, IE, Safari, Netscape or perhaps another browser?

I had opera it's okay.
I think it's faster by negligible amounts.
Opera seems like Firefox lite. It also doesn't seem to run as smooth.
My opinion.

I like FF3 out of all the browsers. I hate safari and IE, never really liked Opera much either.

I run FF2 on all my PCs (XP) I've not had a current Mac since pre OSX and they all ran Netscape. I need to run IE for 2 monitoring GUI I use at work... as well as for my office Exchange based webmail and VPN access when home. |

I think the vast majority of us would agree that IE sucks eggs. I have FF 2.whatever on my laptop and desktop. I used my work computer for FF 3 (where I am now), and it's okay. It will be much better once add-ons are updated to run on it. I no longer have Adblock, and have to see all the ridiculous gay adds on here now!
Thanks Maki for diluting the pool with your gayness!!!!
