I used to swear by Firefox. I now use IE7 which suits me just fine. I can't say there's a huge difference in speed. Windows Update now works without a dodgy Firefox extension too
With default settings I would say Opera is faster than firefox. however if you tweak firefox a bit then the speed difference isn't as noticeable. The current weekly builds that Opera is releasing at the moment are in preparation for Opera 9 and they are much quicker (I've found) than Opera 8.5 or firefox 1.5.
firefox i've found quick, but if i have lots of tabs open it can get pretty sluggish, especially if i leave it open for a few hours. It also seems to eat memory.
i've been using opera for the last week, and i'm very impressed, seems fast and doesn't use that much memory.
