    Just a thought on who uses what.

    I was a big fan of Opera browser but am firmly committed to Firefox now for tabbed browsing and speed.

    I'm using Crazy Browser. It's a free browser that I found
    in the net and I'm using it since then.
    It has nice tabs system and works pretty fine
    ( unlike IE that I was using earlier ).

    You can use any browser you want. But after you try it you wont want to use IE again mate.

    It even lets you import all your IE bookmarks into it.

    All mozilla gear is designed for the User not the corporation, Imho.

    The mozilla email clients are good also, but have really gone for gmail since its inception. Less hassle all round.

    Don't forget about links, mate :)

    It has also graphic mode, and works in linux console. When I don't have to use this fu**** windows as I have to in my home (winmodem :( ) I use links or firefox.Both are good, links is faster many times, and as I don't need java and all that graphic waterfalls, links is enough for me. And when I sit in programming lesson in university nobody can see I'm surfing in net when I open links.
    Text mode rulez :).

    I use Firefox. It doesn't let ActiveX plugins to install, what makes impossible for sites like creative.com to search for newer versions of drivers automatically and I have to do that manually. On the other hand, lack of AxtiveX plugins makes Firefox safer and more stable. Besides there are very handy tabs, nice skins, built-in Google and Wikipedia window, download manager with posibility to resume downloads [yep, GetRight is better, but Firefox is still better than IE in this case ;-)] and many more... :)

    I used to use links, but I'm not poor student anymore. Now it's FF: tabs, NO SPYWARE and NO POPUPS, planty of interesting extensions. But got some problems with message editor on TC.
