Default What's Your Favorite Browser? - 09-26-2011, 09:26 AM

Please poll your favorite web browser, and posts some reason why you like it.

Mine is:

Firefox:
+Fast
+Intellegent URL Finding
+Spell Check
+Nifty Downloads system that I believe allows for multiple downloads and also helps making multitasking easier
+Good Looking UI

-Slow Flash Animations (from what I've seen)

We did, but so what.

Firefox is slow compared to Google Chrome, but it has many features Chrome really lacks in. Try Firefox 7, its much faster and almost on par with Chrome. Chrome really lacks in customisability, which is why I prefer Firefox. for regular browsing I use Firefox, but for quick-casual browsing I use Chrome.

Safari 5.1. It is the fastest browser on Lion. It runs on Webkit2.

I thought it was firefox 4 or something. Whatever any computer I am on when I try firefox it gets very slow. I only need a web browser thats fast, has bookmarks, and works. (plus the incognito window).

Internet explorer, but not IE8 or IE9. Just internet explorer 7 without all that fancy stuff.
Here come a bunch of geeks laughing that I use internet explorer instead of one of the new browsers like chrome.

No I used to use Internet Explorer all the time and the more I used it, it seemed, the faster it got. I have switched to Google Chrome recently, though, and I believe that it's much better than IE.
