What web browsers do you use?

[FN-GM]

Hi there

Just a quick poll to see what web browsers you mainly use. I have made this poll multiple choice so you can pick more than one, please only vote for ones you use regular. Not including mobile based browsers

PS: Please can a Mod correct my spelling mistake in the poll it won't let me edit, cheers.

I use opera mobile on my phone. I use Firefox on my work/home PC. However certain sites still need IE to work right so I use IETab, so I use IE6/7 too really.

Geoff, I tested opera mobile a while back and found it a bit resource hungry (on a windows mobile htc touch), how've you found it?

[JohnMason]

Firefox for browsing, Internet Explorer for the odd site here and there that prefers it.

And of course for the first URL one should ever type into a fresh format (of Windows, anyway)... www.getfirefox.com


edit: And I just remembered, I use it for Quidco too. That way I can have been to a site before, but because it's not on IE I garentee the "sent by quidco" cookie is there so I get my money.

...does anyone else see a problem here.....?

Yes but it's multiple choice. 10 people doesn't mean 10 votes. it could mean 20 which would add up to 200%. The percentage is obviously calculated per person not per selection.

Much better than the built in browser on my Nokia 6500 Slide.

I love Opera - but have noticed the last couple of versions have been a bit annoying with some long waits as it seems to be dealing with caching or something.

[webman]

Firefox of course.

Ah yes, but he did put a request for an admin or mod to change it.
