I have three net browsers in my computer Chrome,360se and IE.Ie is the safest browser in my opinion but sometimes it couldn't open the sites.360se have advantages of both qick and safe which is a product of Chinese soft company.Chrome is the quickest browser which is my favorite.The problem is that chrome often crashed when i did my work online.
Generally speaking, all of these browsers have their own advantages and disadvantages that like everthing have two sides.
Which one are you prefer?Please share with us.

I normally like to use firefox or flock as both have proven to be more stable then IE. However, irronocally Ie loads mylot a lot faster then the other two do, and I can get more posting done. I find that middly strange at best. However, seeing how the idea behind this site is to converse and post in topics, create topics etc, I have to do what's best and use IE which I hate.

I used to use Internet Explorer (IE) since I know how to use a computer. But sometimes later in 1997, I also use Netscape Navigator. That was a time where we need to spend 2 to 3 hours for downloading a 3MB files. I only use IE ever since I switch to windows 98.
Then, during 2007 onwards, I started using firefox. In my opinion, it's much better than IE. It's more robust and spyware proof compared to IE. Now I still use IE occasionally, because some website only support IE, not firefox.
Happy posting and have a nice day!

Hi game333, thanks for commenting on my response in this discussion. I do agree with you that it's our responsibility to visit spyware free website. But sometimes, it's tough to judge the legitimacy of a site. Therefore, that's the reason we need protection. A good browser should provide better protection against spyware or adware attack. I can see that IE is still improving. I always prefer to use the latest version of IE, because it's the least vulnerable to spyware attack compared to earlier version.

I have used Firefox for a long time and I like it. I like to take advantage of its plug-in and they make this browser much more convenient and useful. Besides, I found it won't slow down my computer even if I open many tags. I seldom use IE because I think it is slow.
I love China

I have been using IE before but by getting a lot of errors I have switch to Firefox and never look back to IE again. For Firefox is the safest and stable browser I been serving me for many years already and regularly update to new version when there is available. What I like most about it is the add-on's where you can install features you want on a browser and it always meet my expectations.

Right now I use Firefox and Chrome. I like both. Firefox is the best in my opinion. It is extremely customizable and I feel like the programmers now exactly how to make it work the way I want it to.
Chrome is a very good looking browser and it is very small. I like it for simple browsing, but for my power browsing I like Firefox better.

Currently i'm using Maxthon, a multi-tabbed Internet Explorer browser that gives me RSS feeds, change the skins of the browser, a pop-up browser, it's the Swiss Army Knife of browsers. Maxthon also lets you save and resume your websites where you left off by saving your sites together in "Groups", reactivating one or all of your sites at once, and resuming where you left off when you open Maxthon again.
The downside is that it's a CPU hog. It can slow down your computer and increase your CPU usage to 100%. I'd recommend saving your groups in case it slows down or crashes.

Currently now I only have Internet Explorer, Firefox Mozilla, and Chrome on my computer. Yes, I am having the same problems using Chrome too. So I just mostly use Firefox because I can have stuff open in one window. With IE, I had to open a computer new window if I was looking at something different and that would make my computer screen look cluttered.

I use none of these.For me,Firefox is the best.It is faster than any of the browsers I have used before and is really easy to use.Internet Explorer on the other hand is far too slow and looks too dry.I tried using Chrome once but wasn't really comfortable with it so gave up soon.Firefox also gives me speedier downloads and is well organized.No idea about 360..:)

I have been using chrome for the last few months and have found it stable and speedy for all supported sites.
I switch to firefox when a site isn't chrome enabled, it's not as fast- but all the addons and plugins available make it easy to use and flexible.
I abandoned IE years ago, it was just too slow and unreliable- crashing and stalling at random intervals.
Chrome also allows you to kill individual tabs- and as soon as the web is ready for chrome- I'll be sure to uninstall firefox

I have IE but i never use it I have firefox and thats what i always use. I am on it right now. hehehe. I have the IE add on for firefox too so if i never need to use IE I will just use the firefox add on for it. I don't like too many other browsers i am picky i guess but i love firefox. I have had it for years and i don't plan on changing it.

I have been using Firefox for about 10 years. I find it the fastest and safest as far as security goes. It doesn't have all the security holes that IE has.

I read that Internet Explorer is the one of the most unsafe browser. For me Internet Explorer 7 runs slow. I have latest version of Firefox and Opera on my PC. I am very happy with both of them and use them most of the time. I would install Chrome when it is available as an .exe file and gives us the option of custom installation.
