This may have been posted before, but I'm bored at work and am in the mood for a new poll.

I mostly use firefox, but I've been slowly switching over to Opera. I just never bothered to transfer over my bookmarks, history etc. when installing it, so I'm slowly building it up and adjusting to the different layout. I tried out chrome, but it seems so bare that it will take me a bit longer to get used to it when I've mostly been using firefox for the past several years. I love firefox, but it has been getting pretty unstable and slow over the past year or so.

Firefox. I like the extensions. I have two faviconised, permanent tabs for my gmail and google reader.

I quite like Opera unity. But the browser itself annoys me.

Firefox sometimes, for all the things that google chrome won't do... But on our computers, its just so damned slow, I always end up defaulting to chrome. Haven't ever tried opera....

How can I choose multiple choices? I use Firefox, Chrome, and IE8.

ie8 is fine for korean internet but make sure your anti-virus is on the job.

Safari is Apple's browser.

Always open on my computer:

Explorer for my school email and the school website
Firefox for most of my surfing and my website
Chrome for Facebook, YouTube, and some surfing

I have Opera installed but I don't use it much.

Firefox tends to use excessive RAM but you can't beat all the add-ons. Chrome lacks in that dept.

Opera, but contemplating Amaya. Sick of browsers that suck at W3C compliance.

Chrome, unless I'm trying to get something done on some bloody Korean flash infested mess that will only play nice with IE6 T>T
