Well, most of these browsers are rather flexible, you know,
they can be customized in soooo many ways, hehe.

You may want to check out Opera also, I kinda like it.

I switched from Opera to Firefox when Opera 7.5 came out and they butchered the toolbars, and I haven't looked back since.

Thanks for the massive input.
Let me argue your point:

Did you really wanted to discuss about the browsers or you just want to talk
leet?

I've mentioned this elsewhere but here's my take:
I dont see much difference on those 2.
I use both a lot. Opera might be a tad better IMO since it has the mail app built in,
but then again, Firefox has some hawt plugins like Adblock etc.
Opera costs money to get rid of the ads and FF is free.
damn....

Tough call if i should use only one browser,
cool thing i can use both.
:D

I like the way firefox can look very minimal even when you have 20 or so extensions installed.

:lol:

that's why I have my ermm....full.....copy of Opera
FF is a cool browser, what I'm using atm, but...
they may have an update that's slightly buggy or somethin,
or I may just get pissed at it one day, whatever
I can just swith to Opera....with no ads :D

and I've gone through the Maxthon, Slim Browser, Avant Browser, etc phases
don't think they quite measure up to FF or Opera
but that's just MHO :P

ok with maxtron i havent install 1 extension and it have all the same features as firefox witch is great. Plus i dont have the problems that firefox gave me. Images wouldnt load, swf wouldnt, sometimes it would close on certain pages. I tried to stay with it, but there was just to many problems. If it wernt for the problems i was having, i would go right back. I havent had one problem with maxtron, and it feels like firefox.

any of you guys have this problem with firefox: when you are in the middle of downloading something like an .exe and you close the downloading box, the partial file remains plus you cannot remove it because it is "in use". I have had happen about 3 times and had to use forcedel to get rid of them... Other than that tho, no other problems with firefox

The only "problem" I have with Firefox is that it's really taking its time to open.
Maybe it's because I got 25 or so extensions installed?i don't know,but that could be improved though.

But on the other hand it doesn't really bother me because I only have to open it once a day :)

Did anyone ever try the Firefox preloader (https://sourceforge.net/projects/ffpreloader/)?
Is it good?
And what about these MOOX (http://www.moox.ws/tech/mozilla/) builds?

Oh,and another thing that slightly bothers me is that it sometimes crashes on me when I'm trying to post a message on a VB board when the page isn't fully loaded yet

i wonder do all these browsers that use the ie rendering engine inherit lots of the unfixed security holes. might be worth lookin into before claiming they are better then being a drone using firefox.
