Alright, I'm tiring of Internet Explorer, I'm considering either Opera or Mozilla. Which one is better, and why? What do you use?
And is anyone here dumb enough to use Netscape? Blech!
Help me out and I'll give you a free cat.

Mozilla is free so there's no excuse not to try it out. It's a damn good browser, but slightly slower at rendering complex page layouts than IE, esp. on a slow machine. The feature set more than makes up for that though.
Opera has a 30 day free trial so there's no reason not to try that out too. It's definitely faster at rendering pages than either IE or Mozilla, but it feels a little weird to me, like they haven't really thought out the interface as well as they could have...

I am really impressed with Mozilla... they finally are just as fast as IE and their CSS support is more compliant than IE.
I do not like how it puts %20 for spaces on my imported bookmarks from IE though... might just be a bug with my machine though.
I say give Mozilla 1.2 a try - you won't be disappointed.

I'm actually using Mozilla right now! I like the window tab up top, keeps my toolbar from getting cluttered... seems a little slower, but not enough to hinder anything. I have Opera, it's fast as heck... but a very annoying ad up top if you don't buy. Fuck that. The mouse movement thing is kind of cool, though.
I can't figure out how to import my IE bookmarks into Mozilla... is it possible?

First you have to export your IE bookmarks as an html file. In IE go to file, import/export, and follow the bouncing ball.
Then once you have your file, in Mozilla go bookmarks, manage bookmarks, tools, import.
Let me know if you need any help installing Flash or Java or anything. I'll be around tomorrow... and now, blessed unconsciousness. Nite.

i've tried several mozilla releases and they're just too darn slow on my pathetic p2-400. Though IE has its faults, i do like the fac that you can basically remove all buttons and menus to utilize lots of screen real-estate.

I don't agree that Mozilla is slower at rendeing complex page layouts, I don't really notice any difference. However, if it is, it's more than offset by the fact Mozilla renders table incrementally, whereas IE won't render them until it has downloaded all the code.

Mozilla has a skin called Pinball that takes up very little space.
As for the speed, every release gets a bit faster as they optimize the code. I'm using the 1.3 beta which runs perfectly fine on my celeron 500. I still find it's a tad slower than IE. Users on more modern systems probably won't notice any difference at all.

there's an easy way to remove the ads from Opera.. AstaLaVista.com - just use the pull-down menu on the left and select a crack/serial search engine of your choice, type in "Opera" and you'll get loads of results of cracks/keygens/serials you can download for Opera...
ah, the joy of not paying for anything. i love you, Internet!

I like Explorer the best, I can't find anything wrong with it. Especially now that I have a prog that removes all pop-ups, easily installed into IE 6.0. With that combined, internet browsing is a pleasurable experience.

IE6 on XP works fine for me...everything else just seems slower, biggier or some sites fuck up...
I know MS take a lot of flak, deservedly so at times but IE is the best PC browser outthere for the vast majority of users...
On the mac, a lot of my designer mates are raving about Apples new Safari browser ..nice & lite and getting more compliant every week (still in beta at moment)...I'd definately give that a try if I were on a Mac...

I always use Opera 6. Its the fastest and coolest. You ever heard of mouse gestures? You can do stuff like reloading, going back and forward with certain mouse movements. The mail client is useful too.
