Name a favorite Web Browser

Mine particularly is Opera because of the Speed Dial, thumbnail tabs, easy on resources, and plus it's really secure. Of course I'm not saying that other browsers are not good; I'm also a fan of Firefox. What are yours?

are Firefox and Chrome

FF3 just seems way slower.

IE is STUPID slow.

Opera never used it.

Chrome was okay. Was a lot of hype for what I got.

Got the firefox strengths with non of the firefox weaknesses (like 30 second load times!).

I used Opera before, but immediately removed it when I noticed it was downloading ActiveX programs automatically without my consent.


On Linux systems, I use Opera because I really really really hate the firefox interface. It's so crippled you can't even put the tabs on the bottom of the screen.

Thanks for mentioning Orca, I'll have to check it out. I like trying an innovative browser.

When I download a file, it just automatically chooses "somewhere" to download and save to. In windows you get a choice. This eternally irritates me because I always download files to my desktop.

"It's in your home folder"
Well what if I don't want it in my home folder, what if it's a 4 gig file and I only have 1 gig of Space on my home folder and want to download to a network drive, what then eh? Hack through about.config and fix Firefox?
