Edited on Tue Feb-28-06 11:41 PM by JohnnyCougar
I just changed web browsers, but I am wondering how many people use which ones on here.

1. Mostly Firefox
Internet Explorer sometimes to view certain pages.

2. The suite -
But I recently installed the new incarnation (SeaMonkey) on my work computer - I'm working on hacking it a bit to make a custom version for my company and I like it a lot so far. Some neat new features.

4. Firefox
although I'm forced to use IE since Firefox doesn't render certain pages.

5. Firefox primarily...
I use Opera and IE to test websites I design though.

9. Green Browser
Yeah, it's an IE shell, but it's also the best, most fluid browser I've ever used.

10. Judging from the results...
…I'd say we have a real streak of disestablishmentarianism going on around here. What are we? Liberals or something? ;)

12. Yes.
Does anyone have a market share report from the general population?

I thought we would be a tad more skewed towawrds Firefox, but never the overwhelming majority!

I just got Opera, and I love it so far. There are only a few sites it acts funky on.

16. I am very surprised indeed
These are the sort of results I would expect to see if this were a Linux geek site...not a political forum.

13. Safari
It does everything I need it to do, including kill pop-ups and pop-unders.

14. Mozilla Suite at home, Firefox at work
I guess eventually I will have to swap Mozilla Suite for Firefox, seeing as they are no longer developing Mozilla...sigh.

17. billyskank -
ya don't have to switch - use SeaMonkey

http://www.mozilla.org/projects/seamonkey/

I prefer the suite myself. And Firefox has a memory leak.

Anyway - I've been playing w/ SeaMonkey a bit recently as I'm working on hacking a custom version for my company. It's everything you're used to, and it has some damned nice new features.

18. I use Safari, but it's sucked so far
I need to figure out what it wrong... it always gets hung up and is way slower than if I switch to running IE on my 5 year old Dell that was not top of the line when we bought it (the Mac is 3 months old)
