What's your favorite web browser?

Firefox. I'll admit that it's not very good, but it has NoScript. That's the only reason I use it.

I almost switched to Chrome anyway, but I can't stand the UI, especially the annoying custom window design. I still use Windows Classic, and I don't want programs forcing anything that's not Windows Classic.

Honestly, if you want to customise the browser, FF is better than Chrome.

I'm very no frills wrt the internet, though, and Chrome is both the fastest startup/loading I've seen and offers the largest browsable window, which I care about a lot more than add-ons and such.

Your mileage may vary.

I've never customised Firefox at all, so I guess that's not an issue for me. http://www.lemmingsforums.com/Smileys/lemmings/laugh.gif" alt=":D" title="Laugh" class="smiley" />

Firefox, because
a) it has adblock and flashblock plugins, among others
b) safari started saving thumbnails - which were so high resolution they might as well have been screenshots - of every webpage I went to and started eating away at my limited harddrive space.
c) IE isn't available for the mac, and it's s*** anyway.

Opera was alright, though, when I tried it, and it became my main browser a couple of times when Firefox refused to work for whatever reason.

I haven't tried Chrome; I don't like the idea of Google having even more of my personal details. Edit: That, and they don't support older PPC macs, or my version of the OS, anyway... stupid apple introducing blocks to compatibility. http://www.lemmingsforums.com/Smileys/lemmings/angry.gif" alt=">" title="Angry" class="smiley" />

Also, I've tried the new version of Firefox recently, and they've done the one thing that made me switch away from Safari in the first place, namely having the stop and refresh functions on a single button. (The reason this annoys me is to do with slow connections and computers - and if you try to stop a page from loading but the computer takes so long to respond that it interprets the click as a refresh, you can be driven up the wall very easily. Java often induces the effect...) The default interface also has the buttons on the right of the address bar instead of on the left next to the back/forward buttons, which I also hate, and the tab bar has moved to above the address bar instead of below it, like Opera and Chrome. And they've taken away the status bar (wtf?). And the bookmark bar has little icons on it. So basically it's an amalgamation of all the interface features I hate, some of which you can't change back. So I'm not going to update to that if I can help it.

So am I, but I prefer no frills on what actually gets displayed. It's always useful, at least to me and my pathetic computers, to have Java/Flash/JS/etc. garbage disabled by default, and most of it is useless anyway.

Well, I've been using Chrome for a couple of months, and it hasn't failed me yet http://www.lemmingsforums.com/Smileys/lemmings/smiley.gif" alt=":)" title="Smiley" class="smiley" />. My one minor complaint is that I can't seem to browse history as easily as I could with Firefox, or even IE. But that's not too important, for the most part I stick to just a few sites anyway (like this one for instance http://www.lemmingsforums.com/Smileys/lemmings/wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink" class="smiley" />)
