Firefox 2.0
Opera every time.
That's what everything else is trying to be.
Pat...
IE 7 seems great - started using it last week and no probs so far.
been using it for a while with no probs
Yep i'm using it too and so far it's 100% perfect, problem is, so was IE6. IE7 is suposed to be more secure so we'll see!!

Iv'e been uising IE7 for some time now. No probs so far. Of course now that I've said that we'll see.
I think it's okay but slightly slow compared to Firefox 2.0. I don't know if it uses a virtual engine for cross-platform work but slows
things down...
One thing IE7 might score on is multiple tabbed flash or shockwave pages. On Firefox 2.0 if you have a few tabbed pages and each has a couple of
adverts on it, the computer starts slowing quite a bit- its a shame it appears that you can't just run the shockwave / flash on the page
you're viewing.....
Firefox 2.0 roxxx!
I love it so far - installed IE7 with Vista
Steer clear for now -- gives major problems on some PCs.
If you want tabbed browsing get Firefox 2 or even try Firefox 3 alpha (codename Minefield !) both are rock solid and give you much more control of
your internet security than any Microsoft product ever will.
If you don't like Firefox take look at Avant which is really IE6 with loads of extra features -

Opera is good browser but it is payware.
Or use IE7
No problems here.
Cheers for the replys lads
I've had a go with firefox and must admit it does seem good/faster for some reason.
Although everything is faster now i have managed to rid AOL and its over excess of software.
After loading Firefox the next thing to do is load the "Fasterfox" add-on/extension --- go to tools menu -- click addons -- then when the
"add-ons" window pops up - click "find more extensions" and search for "Fasterfox"
Add-block plus is another must have extension together with the Filterset-G-Updater for it.
If you use FTP then the FireFTP extension is also a must have.
