Question What browser do you use?

As per title, im interested to see what browsers people use for surfing the internet. So what ones do you use and why? Ill start.

  • Mozilla - Because of pop up blocker.
  • IE - To use the MSN Gaming Zone.

Firefox is great! The skinning when using the Linux version is expecially nice because it uses the system (GTK) theme

Re: What browser do you use?

Mozilla 99% with IE6 only if I don't seem to get to the website via mozilla.. There are still some websites that don't work well in mozilla...
