Why? What features of it do you like most? What features of it do you dislike? Maybe you use more than one internet browser? For what purposes?
Currently I use the latest Internet Explorer (IE) version or so I think that I do (need to recheck it sometimes, I guess). I also use Opera for pages that Internet Explorer won't load. It happens.
Well, I use IE cause it's kind of a standard internet browser and loads most of the pages without any problems and it works quite fast. However, there's things I don't like about it. For instance, I dislike it's liking to crash while opening Google Mail, the security stuff, like blocking some downloads, so from time to time I have to put web-sites to the trusted-list.
Opera is quite fast in loading visited links. But when it comes to browsing new pages, it loads them too slow compared to IE.
I have used other browsers like Firefox, which I didn't like so much because of the allowance of dangerous stuff and Crazy Browser. The last one I liked, cause it blocked all the unwanted pop-ups whereas IE didn't have that ability durring the time being.
What do you think? Please, share your opinions about internet browsers:)

Try opera.

I know most of you guys think ophera is better but actually firefox 3.0 is awesome.
just download it for free and you will see the difference for yourself. Dont take my word for it. Download ophera too and see for yourself but firefox is a hundred times better.

Before I start using firefox, I use IE. Now I use firefox more often than IE. I like to firefox than IE. I usually will use IE if the firefox have some technical problems. IE is like alternative internet browser for me.

Use opera .
you will never need one alternative.
Opera is best. Problem is people dont want to accept.
Try it you will never regret it.
It is fast, beutiful, reliable, has a mail client you can use with gmail.
has a torrent client.
God I have not yet figured out how many features are just standard on opera.

I use Mozilla Firefox. I used to use Internet Explorer. But, it just started acting up and then got worse and now it won't even load! Firefox is pretty good. The only bug is sometimes it will just shut down for no reason, and they don't care if you were in the middle of typing a lengthy post here at myLot or at other sites. Sometimes it goes right back to the site and the post that you were writing is still there right where you left off, but most of the time it is just gone. :( And, I don't know if you can "Save" a document on a Web Browser like you can on MS Word. But, other than that, Firefox is really nice and fast to use. :)

Come on EAStanley you deserve much better in terms of web experience.
Try opera.
You will find just everything you wanted and much more.
Ctrl+S will save the whole webpage.
Try this, when you are typing a lengthy post copy it by Ctrl+A then Ctrl+C.
Open a notepad on desktop .(faster than MSWord and everybody has it).
Paste it Ctrl+V.
And by the way my Opera never shutted down midway ever.
Just try it you will experience the difference.

I use safari for my internet browser. I think it is a good browser to use.

Firefox, definitely. Though I think, posting a poll on a tech forum, you're going to see a definite slant toward GECKO (and possibly KHTML) browsers over IE.
keep posting.. take care and have fun..
