Ok this is the first time I'm doing this. I usually don't favor browsers and I've used both IE and FF simultaneously, but NOW I hate IE... I encourage everyone on IE to go get FF.

I'm sick and tired of things looking perfect in FF, but completely screwed up in IE. Heck, IE6 doesn't even have transparency for PNG files!! It completely screws up CSS, so when making skins it may look great in FF, but ugly in IE. I only have IE anymore just so I can see if my skins look bad in it.

If you refuse to get FF, ATLEAST get IE7, because it actually supports PNG transparency.

I've had firefox for a long time now. Many of my friends convinced me to get it, though most basically look at me funny here online when you tell them about firefox and think what's going on with you, internet explorer works so no need for anything else. It won't be better.
I'm a gamer and always will be a gamer. If you don't believe me. I have 430 Video Games and 19 Consoles.

I doubt you could beat that unless you are a gamer as well! =P

So, let's see if you can outdo "The Jet Gamer"

Honestly, anyone and everyone just get firefox.
If your using that new tab thing onto Internet explorer, firefox invented that years ago.
Microsoft are basically copying everything from firefox now, and they will never be as good, because firefox is totally open source, meaning there's new things added to it constantly.
New skins, plus plug ins like radio, forecast, and some other really interesting things.

In all honesty, firefox is everything Internet explorer isn't

Board wrappers need more Sonic Blast looks good in Mozilla Firefox.
With a link to Firefox of course.

IE is fail, IE8 will be worse.

Opera > everything.

Firefox eats up my RAM like it's going out of style. :[ Not good, especially when I'm simultaneously using Photoshop. And it supports transparent .pngs and picks up where you left off instead of restarting your session every time you close it. (8

This.

Well, for me it's more like Opera = FireFox >>>>>>>>>>>> Anything Else

I can't really decide which is better.

Firefox is not as rendering web pages (though better than IE6 by far) as Opera, so I use Opera. Plus, Opera dosen't use 100MB of memory either, so it's one of SD's recommended browsers.

But yes, it is far better than IE. IE is the most annoying thing I've had to deal with in coding. I have to use CSS hacks to get it working with my sites. It dosen't even support transparent PNGs!

I've tried opera before, and it never worked right, so I just use firefox. I never use IE anymore though.

Hmmm, I'll have to try out Opera. Although FF doesn't seem to take up many resources for me. It opens up instantly, unlike IE6 which lags very very badly.

Then what is the difference between FF and Opera then, though not sure I'll try opera again since it never worked right for some reason.

It's got a different style and on their website it says they did the tab thing first... Anyway, I like how you can right click on a link and instead of having to go to properties, you can just select copy link URL. :)

They're both good though. I've been having fun with the voice add on. You can highlight text and have a voice sound it out. lol!

Opera doesn't rape your computer.

That's the difference.
