Chrome, objectively speaking it's very fast (at rendering pages, doing JavaScript calculations, etc.), the interface is lovely and the version I'm using supports greasemonkey scripts. It's win/win! :D

Firefox, because it actually displays pages properly unlike Internet Explorer. How do I know? Because I make webpages and for the life of me I can't imagine how dumb they are over there in the development department when they decided not to let iframes work in IE, or PNG24s or anything else you might use to make your webpages pretty without adding a bunch of code to make it work right. Internet standard my ass.

Firefox hogs memory but that's why it's got that lovely save and quit feature for games/photoshop usage etc, etc

Internet Explorer at work (it's horrible) and Firefox and Safari at home, for some reason I'm liking the newest Safari much more than Firefox though Firefox is still my default.

Amen Brudda! Workarounds are a total pain.

Opera, so far my favorite Browser. It's usually fast and I like the design.

I've tried Opera, its pretty. I always check in on it to see if it has any updates. It hasn't.

Hasn't had an update in months! Which I find strange as there are so many more threats out all the time...

That's true. If I'm going to any sites I think might be "iffy", I do use Firefox, no point taking unnecessary risks. I've had viruses before, and they're a major *****.

Firefox. It's served me quite well for several years and has a nice amount of addons and such which can be very useful.

Firefox, just to annoy my bf who uses Chrome...seriously though, Firefox is faster than Chrome and you can do more with it. Also, I don't risk closing out my browser if I ever close out of a singular tab.

Firefox mainly, but I recently discovered Chrome so currently I'm using that one.

Firefox because I encounter a LOOOOOOT less errors than IE. I did a test. I used IE for a day and got exactly 27 crashes. Then I used Firefox and didn't get a single bloody crash at all. One draw back of Firefox is the damn CPU usage, but I don't really care about that.
