Which browser are you currently using to view this page?

Mozilla Firefox. Awwww yeahhhh.

just Internet Explorer, here

IE 6.X- Firefox doesn't work for me for some reason.

wrapped inside of a riddle, shrouded in mystery... :p

I am currently using Netscape 7.1. I like it because it has a built-in popup blocker that blocks EVERYTHING (except those from netscape itself, which is still significantly far less than IE with it's crap popup blocker), it also seems more stable because it doesn't have nearly as many errors while browsing.

For anyone fed up with IE, try Netscape today!

Isn't FireFox superior to Netscape, at least the current version?

Konqueror

Firefox 0.8

I use internet explorer and have tied it up with the MSN toolbar, which also has a very effective pop up blocker.

mozilla's bundled browser/mailclient (mozilla 1.7)

hate to say it, but IE sucks. not only does mozilla block popups, but spyware doesn't really happen when you're using other browsers.

Firefox - hear me RAWR.

Definitely... Netscape is almost as bad as IE (almost).

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040626 Firefox/0.9.1

In other words, Firefox.

Which browser are you currently using to view this page?
Opera 7.53

Which browser are you currently using to view this page?

Netscape 7.1 ... tabbed browsing (no more bunches of browser windows), no pop-ups (my penis is just fine, thanks), and spyware can't invade it.

Oo-rah.

internet explorer for life

PS: I love bill gates

I hate everything about Netscape. IE's better than Netscape. I use IE when Mozilla is having problems with what I'm viewing which is only occasionally. Some sites, I need IE, because Mozilla doesn't load the site properly. Other than pop-ups and tabbed browsing, there's nothing really wrong with IE.

IE 6
I'm too lazy to get me something else

the normal internet explorer

Excluding the various security holes that have been found?

edit

Hmm, I'm being a little trollish today, but there have been a few targetted attacks recently.

IE until I have a problem with it.

firefox, </3 IE

I got Safari!!!

Opera 6. Still loving it after installing it 2 1/2 years ago. The fact that some pages look a tad strange on it I attribute to a problem with the HTML code at source rather than with my browser. Tabbed browsing I can no longer live without and will quit eoften have 20 or 30 pages open simultaneously. The ability to block all pop-up windows built in to the browser is also something I miss greatly whenever I go onto someone else's machine and see what an infestation they are when using IE.

I use just plain Mozilla. IE has a lot of vulnerability, and it's what most of the spyware and popups are designed to exploit, as well as a lot of viruses.

Netscape comes with an AOHell tagalong that you will find on your desktop or in your program files, and in your start menu. I object. I didn't ask for AOL, I don't want AOL, and I damned sure don't want it sneaking onto my computer behind Netscape.

Toolbars suck, because they do much the same thing as Netscape, they sneak other things in with them. I won't even use the Google toolbar.

I don't like Opera or any of the dozens of proprietary browsers that come with your ISP subscription. They aren't even as good as IE, and that's no compliment at all.

I'd rather stick with Mozilla. It's tabbed browsing and you can adjust the settings to block doubleclick images and the like, as well as popups. Unlike Opera, it's free without cutting off a third of your browser window unless you cough up some cash. Hell, when the hackers attacked doubleclick with page requests up the yin-yang, I didn't notice. Not until I read the news, and thought to myself, I have always known that the internet would survive without their sorry asses.

Netscape (all of them) comes unstuck where showing java properly, is concerned.

IE + Google Toolbar

i love you google :fluffle:

You mean other than ActiveX scripting, which allows your browser to be hijacked, and other security flaws that you could drive a horde of black-hat hackers through?

What moron decided that client-side scripting was needed, anyway? There's no reason whatsoever for client-side scripts to be run, and many Network Admins are actually banning the use of MSIE for just that reason.

Konqueror
Someones a *nix geek :-D (or they have a windows port I dont know of)

When in kde konquer
When just in shell I usualy use links or lynx :)

(and when on windows IE )

Internet Explorer as nothing has gone wrong with it yet.

My Firefox has the latest Sun Java Plugin and works fine.

You ran ad-aware over your cookies and activeX controls yet?

My vote is for Firefox as well (although right now I'm using Netscape 7). You can download plug-ins to get all the functionality of IE and don't have to worry about any of the gaping security holes.

Plus, anything that competes with Microsoft gets my support on general principle.

Unlike Opera, it's free without cutting off a third of your browser window unless you cough up some cash.


Not that I would ever advocate in a publicly accessible forum such as NationStates an act of dubious legality such as downloading a serial number, but...

Mozilla FireFox. Sweet Mozilla FireFox.

I'm using Opera 7.53.
Unlike Opera, it's free without cutting off a third of your browser window unless you cough up some cash.Um...My Opera with ad, status bar, page bar, and navigation bar has only one pixel less vertical viewing space than my Firefox with navigation toolbar, tabs, and status bar. When I move my address bar to a new toolbar (I like to have it as wide as possible), Opera has 23 more pixels than Firefox.
You ran ad-aware over your cookies and activeX controls yet?I managed to only get advertising tracking cookies in two(?) years of using IE. More recently, though, I wanted to view a site that wouldn't work in Opera (the bug that made this happen has been fixed, BTW), and picked up three items at once.

EDIT: I switched my Firefox theme to LittleFirefox 0.9. I think it's ugly, but it now has 16 more pixels than Opera. With the address bar, Opera has 9 more pixels.

Netscape 7.1. It's the best browser I've experienced, although for some reason the frame that you get when you search bothers me a lot, to the point where I search for something, get angry and go to google (which I forget to do initially).
I hate that when you click a link you're in a frame. grr.

See, these things don't bother me. I'm not a Network Admin. I have Ad Aware and Spybot. It catches all problems. I don't worry about security issues. Hasn't bothered me really. My browser hasn't been hijacked, Ad Aware takes care of that as well. No one is hacking my computer and rummaging either... if IE has that flaw, that is.

I keep it around because Mozilla doesn't work for some sites. Like this one site where you need to click on an ad which loads in the same window to get to the next page to download a ROM. Doesn't work at all with Mozilla. That's just one example, there are a handful of sites that just hate Mozilla.

Opera 7.53. Gecko based browsers are OK (In specific, I like K-Meleon), but the Presto engine pwns them hands down.

The current version only uses an ad about the size of your menu bar.

Unless, of course you pay for it or (trails off mumbling something about a keygen)

Firefox.

I use firefox and so far the only site which wouldn't work for me is hotmail *mumbles*

Mozilla FireFox. Sweet Mozilla FireFox.

Its true firefox is the best browser hands down
