IE for me. Every time I've used Firefox it has seemed slow, and since I don't hardly use any features I would rather stick with IE. It's got everything I need, so I don't the need to change.

I was wondering if anyone besides me was going to say that.

I don't know about you guys, but the spell check that Firefox provides is absolutely irreplaceable to me.

I feel the same way! Ever since I started using IE, I have been having so many annoying typos! Firefox was awesome, but unfortunatly it had a few glitches that eventually turned into a big problem.

If I'm worried about spelling, I'll just copy whatever I'm writing into Word.

Wow, everyone besides what 3-4 people are hating on IE. Well I've used IE, Firefox, Msn Explorer, and aol explorer. All except for Msn have cool different features.
I like IE because it's a classic and you can always find a site that is compatible with it.
Firefox because it's faster and sleek
Finally AOL because you can customize alot of things like color :) and it's fast. I like it the best!

FireFox.

Foxy Tunes.

Spell Check.

And finally the main reason I use it, is because it tells me I'm cooler than everyone else.

I just use FireFox for Foxy Tunes mostly. Does IE have something similar?

Firefox, but mostly just because everytime I use the newer versions of Internet Explorer while they seem to be up to par with Firefox, they always seem to mess up eventually and render themselves useless. I mean, really, it's just on my computer, so Firefox becomes a necessity for me.

Firefox, since it keeps on getting better and better!

I like having pretty customizable themes, along with the handy Spell Check. Of course, the Spell Check is useless for names and such, but overall, it's quite useful.

Firefox is also pretty fast, easy to control, blocks unwanted pop-ups, and has so far delivered no viruses into my computer.

It also has the cutest mascot ever! Go, Fire fox, go!

Because of all of those reasons, Firefox is the best in my book.

I don't particularly care, but probably firefox. A lot of applications/scripts are written for firefox now anyway.

I run Safari, so...

I think before I put IE, but if I didn't and put Firefox, then this is just an affirmation. Anyway, onto my tale.

Awhile ago, I used IE. It was fine, but some things about it just kinda...bugged me. Like the fact it didn't block popups, and it doesn't scan your files that you download for viruses. That's saved my computer...twice now I believe. IE also doesn't do the automatic spellcheck, which I love about FF. So, a few weeks ago, I switched to Firefox and have never looked back since.! :D Although, I'm in Miami right now, and using Earthlink. -.- So...yeah. Anyway, that's my two cents...again. :P

Firefox 100%

The only reason it ever ran slow for me was because of all the ads that go through google. But ever since I got "adblock plus" it has been faster then IE ever has.

Fire fox is amazing.
It has all the security stuff, meaning it's safer, It has the spell check feature that has saved my life god knows how many times (not literally of course)...And it just looks nicer. Plus i hate all the pop ups and stuff that you get with IE.

I use IE for all my non-RP Gateway needs. Just like general surfing and stuff. I'd prefer Firefox overall though because of the spell check. That's a big help. :D

Firefox! I have Windows Vista and whenever I close Internet Explorer a window tells me that the browser closed by accident. Then the window proceeds to open Internet Explorer, even though I wanted it to close. I have to exit out of the first window and the error message that shows up just to close the browser. I like Firefox because I receive no trouble when it comes to closing the browser, but it also looks sleeker with the different skins (I agree about the unfortunate unavailability of some of my favorite skins though). I also love the features that Firefox gives me. I can easily see the weather for tomorrow, see what song Pandora's playing, translate web pages in another language, and block ads at the same time. Plus, with Firefox 3.0, it's also pretty fast and doesn't take up as much memory on my current CPU usage. Also, the fact that it can save your tabs from the previous day you were on your computer is also very nice. Definitely Firefox for me!
