I love Opera. I've been using it for about five years and love the streamlined browser. It's so versatile, and the only thing it lacks, in my opinion, is the open-source editability (don't think that's a word, but...) of Firefox. I use a lean OS, now, but I loved Opera, even on a Windows box. I'm a sucker for mouse gestures.:)

Both firefox and opera are a bit faster than IE but most of all are more secure, that is why they are recommended instead of IE. I am using in general firefox, but some of my friends that use the opera browser are satisfied with it.

IE has spyware in it. That is why is can be very slow. I've been using Avant as my primary browser for many years now. I like the fact that it has really good security for blocking the nasties. Under tools there are a lot of options to set it to just the way you want your browser to behanve. Whether you want a tab to open in front or in back of the page you are watching. Whether you want to clean your history, cookies etc or not. There is way too much to get into here but let me just say that I find that Avant is one of the handiest browsers I've come across. And I'm really picky about stuff.

I disagree with you. My virus scanner picked up on the fact that IE has spyware in it when I was getting an update from IE. And that was not once but on several occassions. And I'm not the only one who has had this experience.
I know that the browser I use will not use more of my ram or load slower than firefox. I know this because I have tried it. I think that the browser I use is far superior to the one you are using.

hmm u have got it wrong my freind.
IE cannot just have spyware in it.IE is a good browser but only lacks in speed.opera is a really really quick browser and i use it and ive been using it for 5yrs now.it is a good package and comes with a download manager...a widget manager and a ton of other features.it hogs up plenty of ram..thats the main drawback...but overall i give it 9/10!!!
if ur system has a good configuration go for opera..else go for firefox..as its consumes less ram and cpu usage.but some sites may not work properly under opera(like orkut!)...
ANYWAYS ALL THE BEST!!!!
