What browser are you using right now?

[quote name='sidlon']I use Opera 7.5 for pretty much all of my browsing, and occasionally reach for IE or Firefox when a site isn't browsable in Opera (which rarely happens anymore). Between the personalized search-engine launching (I use 'gf dynasty warriors' to quickly search gamefaqs) and the whole fast-forward thing (I never have to look for a 'next' link, I just hit 'c'), it's going to be a while until I can seriously look at another browser.

Just curious though, Lootr2Core... have you tried out the whole 'magic wand' password system? I don't use it personally, but I know people who really like it. *shrug*[/quote]

I've tried the magic wand thing , or rather TRIED to try it, and it didn't seem to work well.

I have been playing with firefox now (and doing comparison tests with Opera, IE and Firefox all at the same time, and i'm really digging firefox. I feel like I am getting a divorce as I've been with the Norse Opera program for so long, well maybe someday I'll come back, but for now I remain with firefox. (And IE man I would chose opera or firefox over that bloated beast)

I actually don't use Firefox too much, mainly because if a site doesn't work well in Opera, it's generally a site that was hard-targeted at IE. A couple other Opera features that I don't think I could leave at this point:

  • * dealing w/ ugly pages: just hit CTRL-G to switch to a basic style-sheet
    * finding a bookmark: the find-as-you-type field on the boomark panel is priceless if you've got a lot of them
    * F12: I can generally leave plugins like flash off (for annoying ads), than easly enable it when i want to play a game on some website
 
I converted to Firefox from IE a few months ago and haven't looked back. It's not that I was having problems with IE; it was working just fine. Firefox is just so much better. I'm really glad I decided to try it, because it I didn't know what I was missing. This is one case where "If isn't broken, don't fix it" does not apply.
 
Look at this,posted on another thread:
So I think spyware has totally infected my computer. The other night I think I accidentally clicked on a pop-up and since then I can not get on anything. If I click on AOL it starts up and then goes to password and an error message comes up and it closes. The same thing for Internet explorer, and MS Word
Click to expand...

Running IE is definitely not a smart thing to do.
 
[quote name='jmcc'][quote name='MorbidAngel4Life']well .9 is kinda glitchy. it is after all, an "unfinished product", or whatever Mozilla calls it. and if you use Netscape, your basically using Mozilla, because they both are almost the same(except mozilla has WAY more features.)[/quote]

What kind of glitches have you found? I haven't run into anything yet and after upgrading from 0.7, which had gotten so unstable on me as to be almost unuseable, it seems like a real breath of fresh air.[/quote]

mine friggin crashes all the time for some reason. maybe it doesnt like me.....
also for some reason, it locks up occasionally for no reason, and then i have to kill it and restart FF.
