Default What browser?

What browser does everyone use the most for their own web surfing?

Firefox is my default. I use Netscape quite a bit too (both 7.2 and 8.0). I test sites in Opera and IE but try to avoid IE when surfing.

I prefer firefox because of the tabbed browsing. If you dont like FF try netscape it also now features tabbed browing if you like that feature.

Yeah, tab browsing is great now that I have become use to it. I can't imagine going back to browsing without it.

The main problem with Firefox and certain web pages is that certain sites are not designing to accomodate other browser options.. including Yahoo! and MSN. Wonder why MSN would choose to not build for FF??? :?

I think old Billy is afraid of what the open source community could do to him hence the incompatibilty with FF

I prefer FF as well but I cant stand the way the -find- and -view source- options work. Sometimes they are weird with my CPanel.

I have to agree with Brandon. I tried FF and it annoyed me as well! I tried Opera, and Avant browsers as well, but my all time favorite is Internet Explorer.
It has all the features I like and it's nice and familiar to me lol.

Firefox is the best! With mouse guestures.

I never use IE, and dealing with firefox at school is a pain, but worth it.

I also use mozilla.

I have been unable to get Firefox and Norton to play well together since I downloaded a FF update so I've had to make Opera my default and uninstall FF completely.

Did you try asking in the Mozillazine forums about your problem?

Yes, I did... but the recommendation they gave me didn't help.

And for some reason, every time I go in to Norton Firewall and try to change the configuration for Firefox Norton locks up my computer to the point that I cannot even ctrl/alt - delete out of it. Something is definitely not right but I can't seem to figure it out. For now, I just uninstalled FF and may try to bring it back later when I have time to figure out the problem and deal with Norton tech support.
