I use Opera. The only fault with it is that it isn't as widely compatible as Firefox. If it was, I'd use it for everything. I keep Firefox around for specific things like accessing Vimm's Lair. But for everything else, Opera. Firefox has a lot of features, but most of them are things I don't use. Oh boy, it has iTunes in it. I don't use iTunes. Opera is fast, secure, and practical.

Welcome back, UnderINK! It's good to see you again. 
I really like Opera, but I can't use it on a regular basis because it doesn't support all the extensions that I make frequent use of. Opera is the superior browser, but Firefox is what I use.

I usually prefer IE myself, simply because unlike many, I make full use of the advanced options (to enable a full pop-up blocker, run checks on everything downloaded for viruses, and the like, most of the stuff people complain about actually). However, I have been using Firefox more, simply because of a couple of sites I visit (this one included) glitch up horribly on IE (the others work fine). Firefox has always crashed on my computer and isn't very reliable for me, so I stick with what works.
My personal opinion, and just ask and I'll give a full tutorial on the Internet Explorer Advanced Options, where you too can disable peskyplumbers pop-ups and other things.

IE isn't supported by my OS, so I use Firefox.

IE is very slow on my computer, and the interface is pretty fucked up as well, so FireFox is the browser of choice, though i use Chrome every now and then when my computer is lagging like hell, as it's very light.

Opera, every time. I was annoyed by the most recent release of Firefox and immediately switched my new computer to Opera like my old one, and every personal computer I've used in the last few years. Less compatibility, so I keep Firefox in my back pocket, but it always handles so much better. I've never had more crashes with Firefox in my life than with the newest versions so I've opted out of touching or bothering with it for a while.

Personally I love Chrome. At school on the Mac's we use Firefox, on the family desktop we have IE and on my personal desktop and laptop I have Chrome. Comparing them all I prefer Chrome, it's just as good as Firefox in everyway I think but the entire tab section is better in my opinon, that and re-opening pages you accidently closed. Chrome is pretty spiffy.

Firefox, hands down. It's a lot more secure than IE, although since my school wont let us use anything other than IE(yay for taking advantage of security holes to watch every move we make!), I use it occasionally. I also use Chrome every now and then.

For me, there's no doubt that Firefox reigns above all.
Points for...
Speed
-Opening new windows
-Loading pages
Minimal lag
-For games
Little to no glitching
-For websites themselves
-For games as well
User friendly options
-Most everything (Hey, my mom can figure out how to use bookmarks and browse history. That's saying a lot)
Those are just a few, but the one that I find is best about Firefox...
Its logo is AMAZING. Really, look at it. It's a fox cuddling a blue ball! How much better can logos get?
