Best is Firefox as it has a great base feature set and community (extensions).So which browser is the best and why?
Which has the best addons?
Which is the quickest?
Which one is the biggest hog?
Which one has the sexiest themes?
Which one do you actually use?
What do I need to do to convince you to permanently switch? It's the best browser ever, imo. It's quick, it's full-featured (unlike Chrome or Firefox without its extensions, and yes I hate how you have to add-on something everytime you want to do something), and it's just the KING. If it's a matter of JavaScripts not running well on FB or WebCT or something, the latest version (Opera 10.01) fixes those. Compatibility isn't a major issue nowadays either. Does no-one else use Opera? I'm the only one so far who voted it. lol at Netscape Navigator though. Who uses that nowadays?Yeh, I use IE as I can't see any advantages of firefox, it has all I need so I'm rollin with it. I got opera recently and think that is fairly decent but prolly not enough to make me switch.
+1Firefox is more customizable but I see no REAL advantages of using it over Google Chrome.
Took me a while to adjust to the overly simplistic style of Chrome but I've grown to love it way more than firefox.
It's never crashed on me, apparently it's far more secure and it loads ridiculously fast compared to my other browsers.
You could apply a skin. The beauty of Opera is you can download skins and apply them immediately without having to close and reopen the browser. What do you mean by the text is thinner?EDIT: yeh, I realise why I disliked opera, it was cos the text is thinner and stupid looking compared to IE and I looked in all the settings and shit and nothing fixed it.
Really like the sound of chrome for bigger files.I can understand your distaste with Opera I personally dislike it. Firefox's download manager is actually good now days but Chrome's is better for bigger files. With IE you're also opening up huge problems with security that you don't find with most other browsers.
Also why would you like Real Player it installs ad-ware that you can't permanently get rid off without a reformat and it is essentially a piece of crap now days, just use one of the many third party downloaders for Youtube.
Yeh, that wasnt great wording but it is the best way to describe it. I tried crtl + to zoom but that didnt change, tried lookin at fonts but both are times new roman / courier new so iunno what's goin on there.You could apply a skin.

Ah, I stand corrected. I have had it for ages and noticed nothing. To make sure ill use an independent program to do a malware scan incase my virus/ad-ware/spyware scanner is missing it.Note I said permanently delete them.
Comodo looks awesome, thanks for that, never come across that in my searches.Claiming that the Windows Firewall gets the job done really depends on what OS you're running. XP the firewall is absolutely useless where as Vista or 7 because of the better underlying security features it is generally alright but it would be recommended to get a third-party firewall such as Comodo.
