Which Internet Browser do you use?

I use Firefox on the PC, mainly for adblock plus and a few other extensions (downthemall is good too).

On the mac I use Safari 3 as I have glimmerblocker installed.
 
I use a mixture of Opera, Iron and IE.

I find that Iron is faster than Opera, it loads quicker and loads webpages quicker. But most of the time I use Opera for it's functionality.
 
Facebook chat appears to dislike IE7 for some reason so i either find someone who has IE7 and has it working and compare settings or get Firefox.
 
I used Google Chrome for a while when it was Beta... What is the deal with that now.. is it out properly?

Im back to Firefox now though, but I'm not sure if its my computer or that but it seems to take longer to load up than anything else
 
Those who use Adblocks...do you think it's ethical, or could lead to more subscription-based sites? I'm not judging (I use it at work, but not at home), just wondering what the justification is.

I use Adblock - I never click on advertising links on sites, so losing often overly intrusive ads is fine by me anyway.

I use Firefox mainly, though I will occasionally use Safari as well, due to my increasing amount of Mac usage.

I figure that if the ads were there I'd never click on them anyway, so my decision to block them isn't really costing anyone anything.
 
I use Chrome. The only thing that annoyed me was no middle mouse button scrolling but now I have a laptop so it makes no difference.
 
Opera, but it annoys me because:

Some of work's ticketing systems don't work properly in Opera which is REALLY irritating, as they are massive, complex forms.
It has recently started freezing/ crashing a bit at random times.
It has bouts of slowness here and there.
 
Firefox

Had a quick look at Chrome just now, I don't like the lack of middle mouse button scrolling and I can't get the pages to look right regarding font sizes/page zoom. It seems Chrome just increases the font size when you want to zoom whereas Firefox makes everything bigger. Might have a go trying to set it up right another time.
 
On my website with ~14,000 unique visitors per day the break down is as follows:

38% Firefox 1.x
27% IE 7
16% IE 6
11% Safari
3% IE 8
2% Opera 9.x

Adding the IE totals have them ahead of Firefox.

I use Firefox on Mac and IE 8 on PC.
 
I'm shocked at the lack of percentage share for Google Chrome in that breakdown, I knew it was still only small but I thought it'd probably be breaking a good couple of percent by now.
