MyIE2. Although if Avant is the same, that looks tempting, but I see no reason to change. MyIE has been anything I wanted it to do, tabbed browsing, filters, favourities where i want them (and they STAY there unlike goddamn IE) google toolbar, one instance... a lot better than having several IE windows at the bottom of ur taskbar.

Crap. It's wayyy too early... ><

EXACTLY! Opera doesn't allow moving around of bar in order to increase browsing real estate like Explorer or Firefox.

Id say that is one annoying thing.

But yesterday I downloaded firefox to see what the big deal was about, and it was entirely too slow for me to use. You probably wouldnt realize how slow it is until you've used opera, but seriously. And this is on a 3200+ 1GB system, so my processor is not the bottleneck. It really is that much faster.
 
Firebird. Opera is alright, but not free.
On a decent PC, I can't tell the difference in speed. Even on cable, the network is enough of a bottleneck to make all browsers render equally.
 
Slimbroswer

all the functionality of IE with tabs and pop-up blocking and recovery.

FurFvcks is a pain with plug-ins and many sites kind of flake with it, sites that open video in particular.
