Darth Bane · 19 Jun 2011 at 18:47

Hey everyone,

I think i'm going to get a new browser, i have allways used internet explorer but i have been having so much trouble with Abobe flash player lately that i think it's time to try a new one.

Can any of you guys recommed a browser i really like the look of Mozilla Firefox but i thought i would ask you guys what you think as i know there are others like Google chrome, and opera...

So what do you think guys what browser do you use ?

Thanks

Are you having problems with IE8 or IE9?

I have used Firefox in the past but now use IE9 without a problem

I am using IE9 but i have had so much trouble trying to update adobe flash player, i have tried uninstalling then reinstalling it, but after about three hours to download a 3.0 mb file it just crashes.

A friend of mine had the same problem but installing a new browser fixed it.

So it's time for a change....

Try them all. Run them side by side and pick which one you prefer.

I like firefox because of the add-ons, they make browsing so much better

adblock - less ad's
video download helper - to grab vids from youtube style sites
download them all - great dl manager
