Poll: What Browser (PC) Do you use?

[Kouen]

I use the search bar mostly. Not many people use it, but it works for me.

Chrome. Because safari sucks, and firefox is slow.

and IE is a hive for viruses

 

[Dana22]

Opera, since always.

 

[Mikester1290]

Internet Explorer 9.

It's free (bear in mind it's from Micro$haft) It works, there's no screen clutter unlike the old ones and yes I can drag tabs around or out the window if I like AT LAST.

A question for anyone out there who knows, what's the thing about different browsers being "faster" than others? It's not like I ever had a problem with that, I click a page and bang, it's there. Same for loading the program. Does it only apply to people who run the browser on 386 or something?

Page loading speeds are different as well as using flash and so on. Plus start up times vary from a few seconds to 10-15. Doesn't sound a lot but total them up and over the course of a year you have been waiting an extra few hours for one browser to load over another.

Well I just tested IE9 on mine from loading explorer from the shortcut, (and i set my homepage to MSN cos its full of crap and takes longer than many sites) to being loaded was 1.5 seconds, is that slow compared to others? It seems OK to me not to worry about.

Chrome or IE. For regular life.

Firefox is only for.....yeah.

could be worse! could be a "xxxxxxxxxxx npc from the last xxxxx is now xxxxxxxx what do you do?" threads (fill in the x's with what ever you like )

 

[Nazz3]

Chrome.

Only thing I hate about it is that for some dumbfucking reason YouTube, Google or any website owned by Google doesnt load every time, after i've browsed for about 5 - 10 minutes and maybe try to google something I have to press F5 for about 10 times before the page even partially loads. Also Google and Youtube work perfectly on Firefox.

 

[Chrono212]

I use Firefox (desktop) and Chrome (laptops) but I want to know what the one person who chose 'Other' uses.

 

[Poofs]

i use chrome.

its simple, fast, and does all it needs to

nothing fancy though

Rainbowfish npc from the last Ms. Pac-Man is now a suit-case, what do you do?

 

[dragonslayer32]

I used IE until about a week ago. I now use firefox.

 

[binvjoh]

Chrome. It's so smexy.

 

[Smooth Operator]

Still use FireFox, even tho it now moves more like a PhatCat.
Altho other alternatives are good(all except IE that is), the addons for FF keep me with it.

 

[kouriichi]

Internet Explore Run in Windows Vista FTW!!!

YEEEEEAAAAH!! Get some! Best combo ever!! Its like snorting coke, while chewing weed, when your already on a bad acid trip, after you sniffed an entire bottle of model glue, before you took 7 vicodin because of your hip displacement pains!!

I wouldent upgrade to windows 7 if they paid me!!

The sad part is..... i was kinda being serious. I like IE. And Vista.

 

[Jamothy]

Ubuntu came with firefox, didnt really see any point in changing.

 

[Major_Tom]

Opera, she was my first since I left that ***** IE and I never looked back. Ah, she was so young back then, version 6.something, we've been together for more than 8 years.

 

[loc978]

I actually have Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Safari, and IE installed on this computer... and I use 'em all pretty much in the order I just listed 'em.
