Internet Browser Comparison
This is the most comprehensive analysis I've found to date.
A very useful guide which is updated regularly:

Re: Internet Browser Comparison
After reading that news article I now know why I did not like Firefoz when I triec it. Its based on a re-work of mozilla which was the base for netscape which I hate with a vengance.

Re: Internet Browser Comparison
Wow, thats one big article !
I've always had problems with IE and since switching to Firefox I find it easier to browse, quicker to access, so I'l stick with that.

There is no 'best' (although there would be a few contenders for 'worst').....it's all down to personal preferences.

Reading through most of the options lists Opera scores very high In my n00b humble opinion  , might have a look at it.
The only downside atm is that you have to pay for an ad-free version

The ads can be made to occupy a very small area of the browser header bar - but I bought mine (£21) .. a bargain.
