IE for regular browsing...but certain things require opera...nice how it opens up where you last left off...heh...

[iron2000]

Just want to know what browser the techies of the board use. ;)

[caerma]

MSIE 6

[Metal Head]

IE6...

[Fotix]

Phoenix.

Some of the many reasons I use it (including Mozilla):

- Blocks 99% of all ads and popups with a 1k CSS2 file

- Speedy development on the Gecko engine

- One of the most W3C standards compliant browsers

- Fast rendering of web pages, aided by turning on HTTP Pipelining

- Community aspect of development and input from end users

- Cross-platform. Available for Linux/Windows/MacOS

- Tabbed browsing. Once you get accustomed to it, it's hard going back to the old way of managing windows in the task bar

Hope this helps. ;)

Jeez! Hasn't this thread been started so many times already? I've seen many do this in the last year or so I used Neowin.

Mozilla 1.3a is my choice, but I must admit Konqueror can block the pop-ups better. Every single one is blocked, even the JavaScript-based ones!

I just started using Phoenix, I love it :D

Litest browser with the most features I've seen :yes:

[Icarus ^i^]

IE6. Would love to find a substitute for it, but too lazy to try the alternatives... will take care of it soon :)

[MulletRobZ]

I've heard of such nonsense before, Icarus! :D

[CatnipOligarchy]

no opera on the list? :(

[thingsforjason]

i'm glad you asked...i use ie6 :blink:

[limited inc]

NetCaptor tried others but none of them fit right.

[Groovedude]

I.E 6.0, did try Opera 7.0 Beta didnt like it tho :(... it was the way it minimized inside the program and not into the taskbar when opening new webpages... and it was all like squahes cos of the funny bar at the side :(

[Toxikk Veteran]

boo ie.

i love me some mozilla. :hump:

[ring0]

other: opera 6.05

they've got a few bugs to fix with the beta, but i've fallen in love with 6.05 and i'm never switching (unless they trim down Phoenix's RAM usage, add tabs and popup blocking to IE7 or perfect Opera 7 - whichever happens first)

[Blaise Veteran]

Phoenix...I still have regged Opera but I'm lovin the tabbed browsing and the nightlies too in spite of the 22MB mem load.

I'm thinkin about checkin out that "Crazy Browser" people have been talkin about here.

i like Internet Explorer. I've used it since 4.0's been around. as for netscape, i've used it since version 3. however, personally, i like Mozilla. i didn't find out about it until netscape 6 came around and liked how it's still that brwoser just without all the other stuff netscape adds. which is mostly why i like it, plus, they have newer updated versions more often than netscape does, which i guess is nly when they feel like it or when moziall has a big major change. but my vtoe was for mozilla because of it being netscape 6/7 withouth the extra programs and it's gotten much better sicne the days of 3.x/4.x. and is starting to be as good as IE.
