Default which browser

I use Flock, its like Firefox only better, Flock is designed for social networking, I don't do a lot of that myself but like it for other reasons, but anyone who is big into Facebook and that sort of thing and has lots of contacts to stay up on should definitely give Flock a try, a lot but not all Firefox plugins work on Flock

Default What browser do you mainly use?

I used to switch between Safari and Firefox.
Since Apple brought out Safari 3 I stick to that pretty much all of the time now as I rarely come across a site that won't play nice. Safari is fast (especially with OpenDNS instead of BT's own setup), standards compliant and looks *way* better than Firefox.
You can also replicate quite a few of the Firefox add-ons as there are many small developers on the Webkit/Safari side of things these days.
Switch to Mac/Safari now!

I use Mozilla Firefox. In my opinion, firefox is the best web browser. It is very user friendly. This web browser is faster, more secure, and fully customizable to online life. Firefox includes tabbed browsing, a spell checker, incremental find, live bookmarking, a download manager, and a search system that uses Google. Firefox runs on various versions of Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, and many other Unix-like operating systems.

i use ie7 for windows live mail and downloads which wont work on opera but find opera much better and easier to use than ie7

i tried firefox for a few months but dumped it in favour of opera. had problems installing extras like themes on firefox and the tabbed browsing is hard to get aquainted with lol. i used to have seamonkey which i loved! but had to delete it and when i downloaded again none of the themes or add-ons would work so dumped that too

opera gets my number one vote!

I use Camino on a Mac - it's a Mozilla-based browser, optimised for Mac.

I'm not that interested in loads of plugins, so I can't say how it works with them, but as a simple browser with tabbed browsing that works with 99.9% of sites and is really fast (noticeably faster than Firefox for Mac), I can highly recommend it.

Camino. Mozilla Power, Mac Style

Thanks for adding that in, but I can't vote. I've already cast mine. If it could be changed, that would be great, as I only use Firefox 3 nowadays.

Perhaps I'll wait until IE8 comes out, whenever that is to be... It's senseless to keep changing the polls every time a big browser comes out, so I figure we're better off waiting until all of the big names have made their new final releases first.

Agreed, but I prefer to use it with less clutter, less being more, in my eyes. I use the Google Toolbar merged in with the Firefox Search Bar with only a few simple, but handy, buttons. I don't use skins or any visual enhancements. I prefer efficiency overall.

Are you using the latest version, 3.0.1?

I have just switched to firefox because i was having issues with IE7. when trying to use multiple tabs. The main tab would open ok but it would keep hanging when i tried opening another tab. I tried updating it through microsofts site i even upgraded ti IE8, this seem to solve the tab issue but i encountered other issues. Firefox working fine at the moment so will try this for a while. anybody else have similar issues with IE7.
