Browser

Ok so I'm not exactly the most up to date old fart the world has ever seen but as a matter of curiosity what browser do you like ?

I've been using Thunderbird as my email program for quite some time now but have only just started to use Firefox as my browser.

Speedy little sucker , ain't it ?

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

I like Firefox.

Safari has a great little feature. Under the window heading it's "Activity". This shows you every thing the site is sending you. It's an easy way to find the "get_video" link to download youtube movies. Copy that link drop it in "Streamclip" (windows and mac) and after it downloads you can save it in just about any format.

Firefox, because of all the useful little extensions (Fasterfox) and add-ons (Forecastfox) I can get for free, and also because the addition of NoScript and Adblock got rid of 95% of pop-ups and redirects to sites advertising how to increase the size of my penis by playing poker online which will get me laid by implausibly compliant young women in my immediate area.

I only use IE under duress, but I've heard that the new Opera is even faster than Firefox.

Firefox, and I'm usually very satisfied, but also sometimes I have complaints, for example at this forum "last post" link (little box) doesn't work so I have to click on last page manually.
