First of all shame on you [-X , especially if you're still on Internet Explorer

I use Safari. Even on Windows.
x2 as well as my Macs (Dell/Windows have been quarantined to the garage - but they run Safari too)

Note - I do have Firefox as a back up on each machine as some pages/forms do not load correctly, though this has happened far less these days.
 
I've been using Mozilla Firefox for the past 4 years and have had no problems. It is a little slower starting up but besides that, it is very solid and also intuitively user friendly.
 
been rockin firefox for several years now.

side by side i think it is a no brainer!
 
I too have been a FireFox user since they released it 4/5ish years ago...
 
This thread is 3 years old in case folks haven't noticed. Using IE when Firefox is available is like riding on square wheels instead of round ones.
 
Wow. I had yet to turn 30 when this thread was started!! And my daughter was still 4 months away from being born!!

I switched to FireFox back in January at the recommendation of a couple friends. It is SO much better than IE!!
 
Firefox is a no brainer. I'm growing more and more fond of Safari as they keep updating it. It's definitely faster then FF and IE. IE I use only when I have to (Technet, MS sites, etc.). IE7 has improved but it's so damn slow!

How in the heck did this thread get resurrected anyways?

Dumb question...do you have to buy it?

Nope. Safari and Firefox are free.
