    This is weird, but I use Deepnet for cheaking my emails and Firefox for everything else, only because following links from emails causes it to automaticly open Deepnet, not Firefox and I can't be stuffed to find out how to change it. *shrugs*

    I use FF mainly, but for my, erm... erotic... <_< ... browsing, I use Safari. It's easier to delete history on Safari, and keeping my Firefox history allows me to say to my parents, "See, if I were browsing porn, I would have deleted my history." It's never come to that, but they are so technologically retarded that they would believe it.

    I use Firefox, mainly for addons like AdBlock Plus, flashblock, and ones to download youtube videos.

    I want to use Opera but I keep having issues with it.

    Internet Explorer 7 isn't as bad as 6, though it lacks the adons.

    I'm against Safari because of how out of place it looks on PCs and how Apple tries to sneak it on with the rest of their crappy software. And the last time I did try it, it was very unstable.

    Chrome is still early beta... I'm going to wait a while before trying it out.

    You're back to NT 5.1 and Linux i686? I thought you had moved on to NT 6? Or did you get bored of not having to fight with 600 incompatible sound API abstraction schemes in Linux?

    NT 6 can be a bitch if you have to run Adobe Creative Suite CS3 with only 1 GB of RAM. However, I'm actually thinking of going back... NT 5.1 sucks TOO MUCH....

    Mm.. I used to only have 2GB of RAM and NT 6 was too system hungry. Now I have 4GB and it runs awesome. :eusa_danc

    I love Mozilla - or as I like to call it, "Godzilla" - Firefox. It's easy to understand, use and all. And it's had tabs since i first changed to it. IE only just started that up :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    That's really odd because FF uses less system resources than IE. :confused:

    Safari is my choice mainly because it works and I don't need all those extras although I do use firefox now and then, I don't know all the browsers have there advantages and disadvantages, you almost need all of them! Lol.
