What Internet Browser do you use?

bluediamond · Jul 27, 2004

Just curious what everyone uses and I couldn't find a poll or a thread about it.

Personally I just started using Firefox and I love it.

Edit:

I wanted to also post the different browsers that I know about, sorry if I miss any.

Microsoft Internet Explorer
Mozilla/Firefox
AOL
Netscape
Opera
Konquerror (linux)

aol is a browser? i thought it just used whatever your default browser is.

been using fox for a long time.

Lightningfrog (oops I mean FireFox) here too. I've used it for several years now, from back when it was still just mozilla and I couldn't be happier. I always hated IE, never really felt comfortable with opera, Netscape was IE in disguise (at least to me) and Konqueror didn't seem robust enough. So no matter which OS I'm in, the browser never changes.

If you want more than that do a forums search on browser.

Yeah, the worst aspect of AOL is that it's browser uses TONS of resources, and you can't use another browser unless you've got the AOL browser open.

I use IE6.

Mozilla is my default browser, but will use IE if I encounter a website that doesn't display properly with Mozilla.

Sentential · Jul 27, 2004

i hate when this happens. like my university website that i go on many times a day doesn't support firefox what so ever and im forced to open IE. blah i need to contact someone about changing this.

I started using firefox just this week and I love it :clap:

If I have problems with a website though I open up IE6. Oh I'll throw in 2 more votes, my dad uses Opera as his browser of choice and my best friend also uses Opera.

If you guys will post the most used browsers in a list, I'll turn this into a poll.

Yes it is, and it is a very lousy one at that. AOL will allow to use your default browser. But, there should be a warning on the screen that reads, "Does Not Play Well With Others" If you have AOL software on your machine, it probably does not run as well as it could if it had not been installed.

Mozilla FireFox

and don't forget people...ThunderBird is an excellent product as well.

OK

Microsoft Internet Explorer
Mozilla/Firefox
Opera
Netscape
Konquerror (linux)
MyIE2
Avant
AOL

In the threads I've read these seem to be those most chosen, though a catagory of other should probably be included for the new and/or little know browsers.

PS Whats the default browser in Gnome, I've always used KDE??

Boomstick · Jul 28, 2004

I use AvantBrowser . I love it. Firefox seems to be the same, but I dont have to worry about compatabilty issues from certain sites.

I think I may have to try that. See how well they can pack all those features into a 1MB install prog.
