    Ie, but with one of the browser tools you find here. Currently I use Avant, just updated on the front page. Better handling of favorites and searches, pop up blocking and tabbed browsing.

    Does not appear to be an option.

    I had to use netscape bout a year ago when I had a problem with links in IE, and man-o-man-o-man did I dislike netscape's browser and all the pop-up's just on thier homepage, ack, sucked big balony.

    I tried opera didn't care for it too much. tried few others but alas, I keep comming back to IE, must be some "subliminal" message from microsoft telling me to do it:rolleyes:

    I voted IE because it's my main browser BUT I also use Opera.

    IE is integrated to WIndows and thats why easy to use. So even if I use IE, it doesn't mean I like it or something. MS left me ( and many others ) no other choice. It was totally unnecessary for MS to introduce Ie in such a way that Netscape almost went out of business. Thinking of it makes me sad.

    I voted IE but I also use Opera...I have mentioned this before but it's worth saying again: I really WANT to like Mozilla but IE seems to just be a better browser...so many people complain about evil Microsoft (I would *sometimes* agree) but IE has been really useful to me...I HAVE had problems with some images but it's still a great browser.
    I tried installing Netscape recently but was *really* turned off by the set up process...I ended up canceling it...I do use an OS2/Warp Netscape at work and like it very much (though there are alot of sites it has trouble with -including MGs)

    I'm running Netcaptor.

    Best damn browser out there.

    It runs on the same engine as IE, but with better functionality.

    well i have always been an IE fan, but i am trying Netscape7 for a while and have to say it is far faster than IE, but the AIM and other such added extras arent welcome so the jury is out

    Mozilla.

    I may switch to Phoenix later on when both that and a Mozilla-based independent email client are finished.

    IE is my secondary browser used mainly for Windows update.

    Sounds like an excellent plan... I'm now using Phoenix 0.4 as my primary browser and PocoMail for email, but I'm definitely interested in trying the new email client that Blake Ross and the other Mozilla developers plan on releasing.

    I was using Avant over the top of IE until last night when I started getting probs with Avant but was fine when I switched back to IE...shame 'cos I really like Avant which I bought and paid for ...in a contributory way of course:)

    browser

    NetDive Oxygen browser!!! This browser uses Netscape as its backbone but that is were the comparisons end. Ive used Opera, Netscape, IE, FastBrowser, and a few others that I cant remember. NetDive is alot like Netscape without all of the baggage. I would bet my life that you would like this browser

    I just recently switched to using Crazy Browser-(after using Internet Explorer for a long time)-as my main web browser. I love the tab feature that Crazy Browser has. And it seems to load pages faster than Internet Explorer. (At least it does on my computer anyway).
