I was just wondering, what browsers are you people using? Any reason why? In your opinion what's the BEST browser out there?
I use Mozilla Firefox I've been using it for years

I always used Internet Explorer on my old machine from probably 98 until 2007 when nothing worked anymore. Switched to Firefox on my newer machine around then. Haven't really had any problems with it. Gator mentioned in mIRC the other day that he updated his Firefox and it was crashing all the time. I got a nasty rootkit on my c: partition, so I've been running from another partition. I started to use Firefox, and after I installed it, it started crashing on some of the Yahoo featured news pages, not on any other pages that I can recall. Haunted recommended using Google Chrome. I've been using that for the past week I guess. It looks a lot simpler and cleaner, but I'm not particularly impressed with it's speed. It seems to take a few more seconds for it resolve new URL connections. It seems to keep all your native browsing (any pictures/media/etc on your local hard disk) recorded in the history along with your online browsing history. I'm not too sure I like that idea.

as long as you format and are on a capable computer, mozilla is fine... much rather prefer that over IE.
i don't like opera just from the sole reason of how annoying the opera browser is on my wii (a little above dial-up speed..)
google chrome and pale moon are cool. That one thing about the history I'm sure can be adjusted somewhere in options focalor.

firefox w/plugins for privacy and security like noscript and ghostery. (HTML 5 will make flashblock of ads less successful, as HTML native browser support will handle more of what people use flash for)

Firefox when I have to. Bulkiest and slowest browser in my experience.
Used opera for a little while but wasn't too impressed.
I mainly use chrome. The 2 features that appeal to me is that it loads quickly and most issues and crashes are isolated to a single instance of the app.
It has loads of issues, but I'm willing to overlook them for how lightweight it is.
