    Opera currently. I also use FireFox 1.5.

    Both are good.

    Occaisionally use IE if the page I want to view doesn't work in firefox or opera.

    I am yet to try IE7, but from what I've heard, it sounds crap.

    Firefox 2.0 here. It's fast and it works. The only issue I used to have was it crashing when I went into my Yahoo mail, but I found out how to fix that and now it works fine.

    Did you know that there is an add-on for Firefox that lets you tell Firefox to render pages using the IE render engine instead of Firefox's if you have a site that isn't designed well and won't work correctly? It's called IETab.

    I think there's now just one site I regularly use that doesn't work in Firefox.

    The only one I use regularly that complains about Firefox being an Unsupported Browser is my online banking site. You can still just click "Go to log on" though and it does work perfectly in Firefox.

    I would rather just use IE for IE sites and Firefox/Opera for all others.

    It isn;t a problem as there are only very limited amount of sites that require IE. The most popular one would be the chat on this site. And thats only because Flash is F***ed up in Firefox.

    I kinda use a variety here as each system seems to have levels of peculiarites...

    for instance, i use NN on my laptop, but Opera on the Media PC, Dev Box, I use FF on my linux Boxe's and Explora on my Dell Dev box,

    imma just a browser slut i supose... or i could be Browser Indecisive ?
