Web browsers

I've recently written an article for a magazine comparing a few web browsers, and found myself drawn to Opera. It's got so much more to offer than IE, so I thought I'd see what people are like best. :)

Like none best, but use IE 6.<something> and a version of Opera.

Like best. I've changed my initial post to reflect this. :)

Liked best of the ones you know, then. But tell us which ones you know, too. ;)

I prefer IE to Netscape because it just seems to work faster and Netscape seems to skip badly when I use my mouse scroll, the window doesnt scroll smoothly at all. Netscape does have some nice features however, and I am going to download Opera since I didn't go to work today and have some free time.

I like Mozilla best, Opera as No 2. When I have a choice I avoid both IE and Netscape.

I've tried Mozilla before and didn't really like it. Seemed like a cheaper version of Netscape to me. I have downloaded Opera and I must say it is very spiffy. Lots of options I dont have time to look through right now but I'm not gonna uninstall it like I did with Mozilla. :D

I've tried all of the above, and a few others. I like MSN8 best followed close by IE6, Juno has a nice browser as well. Detest Yahoo. :p

Maybe I should have placed Mozilla in the list, but I thought everybody knew Netscape uses Mozilla code.

I'll stick with IE. Why? Because I'm complacent and feel no need to look around for other types. ;)

Unfortunately Opera cannot display my ISP home page so it looks like I will stay with IE. :(

I've only used IE, so I abstain the vote. I might try something else after seeing the outcome of this poll. :)
