Poll: What browser do people use?
- Thread starter kh85
- Start date
Have completely switched to IE10 since a couple of months ago, find it to be perfect for my needs now. I have never really likes Chrome as I don't use any Google services, and although I used Firefox previously I just feel that is becoming a little more bloated and inefficient.
The only minor negative to IE10 is the lack of Adblock, but I find that the Tracking Protection lists work almost as well without the need for any extra browser plugins. I know a lot of people have genuine reasons to dislike Internet Explorer, but I find it perfect for simply browsing without all the social networking obsessions becoming more prevalent in the other browsers.

i agree about the adblock thing.. it's a great addon. i also didn't know if people had gone off it... might stick with it for a while... surprised people still use firefox too!
I use IE/Chrome/Safari/Opera for different things.
There is a brilliant add-on called Lazareus which remembers what you type into input fields in case the browser crashes/website crashes or you hit the back button by accident = its really useful

Firefox or Opera, IE for some things. Currently Opera.
If people are using a browser just for adblock then install the mvps hosts file, it blocks ads on all platforms including IE as it stops it getting into your pc, period.

There's a lot more Firefox users than you think
. Just use whatever browser you feel comfortable with.
They're developing it for ie and you cant test it out.

Used to use Firefox, but it seem too get bloated and rubbish.

I use to use Chrome however over the last 2 months since Firefox has really picked up performance wise, I've gone back to my favourite orange animal.
I use NoScript, Ghostery, Better Privacy and BluHell Firewall as my add-ons.
It's lightning fast and blocks the items I don't want to see.
You want to see how many 'widgets' and 'addins' there are on pages. Ghostery highlights this really well. Just a simple Twitch page has 7 or 8 that want to track you!
