give glinks a try. It's a browser similar to links, but it also has a gui version if running under X

That's the beauty of links/lynx/w3m. They don't need a gui. ;)

or the short answer: firefox. :p

I love firefox too, but is it me or does konqueror seem more stable, I'm always finding things that don't quite work well in firefox.

I keep my machine on 24/7 and I usually close firefox maybe once a day or a little more often. Every once in a while, if I leave it open for a day or two, it'll crash. But either way, any firefox crashes for me are always linked to being open for a really long time.

Maybe that's one of the problems I have. Mozilla is fine though.

Current release build of Firefox for Linux is 0.9.1. It's beta software.

If you want stability, you should be using the Mozilla suite (1.7).
