    Default Best Internet Browser

    I've been thinking, there's so many browsers out there for the internet, which is the safest and best to use?

    I think this is a pretty good idea for a poll, if the mods don't agree, just close this thead, I'm not fighting for it.

    Namely, Which browser do you use on a daily basis?

    I personally use Netscape because:

    A) I used netscape since the first days, and like that familiar N.

    B) The fusion theme rocks no matter what anyone says.

    C)I love the little toolbar things: Email, Weather, Bookmark links, News, Stocks, etc.

    D) Very Safe Browsing via Security Center.

    Your thoughts?

    Firefox for life!

    Netscape is also very good

    Using Safari on windows (other than development reasons) is just stupid.

    IE sucks, end of story.

    Opera is decent.

    Well, Netscape 8.1.3 (best version) is based on FF but made tons better.

    so if your familiar with FF, your familiar 50% with Netscape.

    and yeah, IE Sucks with a passion.

    If I'm not mistaken, Netscape is a Firefox port.

    so um, i guess this poll is for WinSuck users (im joking guys!)

    I use the OS X Firefox, but also the OS X Safari, which does have faster rendering speeds (on macs atleast, win Safari is still BETA)

    Incorrect. Check out IE Tab.

    Firefox annoys me. I hate tabbed browsing and the last time I used Firefox there was no way to turn that off. I also hate folk who go on about Firefox being better than Internet Explorer when they are both tosh. I thought Netscape died in the late 90's.
    At the end of the day the Internet is the Internet and I really don't care enough to switch from IE, but certainly cannot vote for IE as my favourite solely on my contempt for Firefox.

    Out of curiosity, why do you hate tabbed browsing?

    It's one of the most usefull features to me.

    I choose IE. Version 6.0 works quite good for me. I found Firefox quite annoying, but try it whenever IE fails (happens very rarely). I, too, thought Netscape died with the last millennium. Haven't tried the others.

    Do YOU have any games you want to get rid of that haven't been reviewed on the site and needs to be beaten for the sake of this project? Send 'em to me and I'll review and beat them! I'll pay for shipping of course. Shoot me a PM if you're interested.

    Firefox is the cream of the crop as far as I'm concerned....
