| So, what's everyone's favorite Internet browser? Mine is probably Mozilla Firefox, although I like checking my e-mail better in Internet Explorer & downloading stuff in Opera, LOL. I tried the Safari Windows beta version, but I didn't care for it much. |

| Absolutely Mozilla. It has a lot of great extra features and i've had a lot less internet security issues since i switched over |

| Awww yeah, Firefox all the way. Way better than IE. And IE stole the tabs idea from Firefox as well. I have Opera, but it just seems a bit too much like Firefox. I do like the Speed Dial funtion on it, though, which you can also get as an add-on for Firefox. |

Oh, you can? That's awesome; I didn't know that. Yeah, I only use Opera for downloading things...IDK, it just seems faster & better at that than Firefox. |

| Firefox all the way! I use Firefox unless I'm checking my hotmail, which automatically opens in IE. Firefox is just much faster and I like the tabs. I know IE has tabs too, but Firefox had them first and plus, Firefox's are better. |

| I like Firefox far better - it's safer and has way more features and things to customize. |

I really like Safari, both on Mac and PC. It's three times faster than Firefox just in initial program loading, and seems faster in page loading. The UI is much cleaner, too.
Firefox by far pwns IE, Netscape, and Opera, but I still like Safari the best. |

| I tried the Safari beta for Windows, but I didn't like it much so I uninstalled it. It seemed to me that it took longer to load, and the overall feel was just too iTunes-ish. Like I said before, I'm used to PCs. |

I'm a Safari boy, mainly because its the only browser that really works well on Mac OS Leopard (in my opinion).
However, as a web developer I also use Firefox, which is all good  |

I like Mozilla Firefox.
It's just better, in my opinion.
It even seems more straightforward and easy to use than Internet Explorer.
I find it interesting that so many people like Safari for Windows.
I have never tried it.
Is the browser just like it is on a Mac?
I don't own a Mac, but I like Safari when I do use one. |

| I actually don't know if it's exactly the same as on a Mac or not, because I've never use it on a Mac. On my PC it looked exactly like iTunes. It seemed really slow though, and I personally didn't like it, so I uninstalled it... |
