Best internet browser

[ThaGrandCow]

I'm about ready to switch from IE to another browser. No real reason, I just want to go with something new.

Honestly I could go do all sorts of research, but instead I think I'll just post this thread, go play on my emulator for a few minutes, then come back and see what the general consensus is (might as well just admit I'm lazy)

What's the best non-IE browser to use?

mozilla

Mozilla

opera

OK I downloaded Mozilla and Opera, installed both of them so I'll play around a bit with each.
What is firebird? Is that the name of the current mozilla build?

Mozilla Firebird is a redesign of the Mozilla browser component, similar to Galeon, K-Meleon and Camino?, but written using the XUL user interface language and designed to be cross-platform. More information about Mozilla Firebird is available at the Mozilla Firebird Project Page.

Woah... playing with mozilla right now and what's this quick reply box at the bottom of every thread? Where did that come from?

IE has that too. It can be docked or undocked. It's the only browser that supports being undocked though....

opera is a very useful browser for looking at forums and stuff that you will be opening alot of windows

But IE is best for playing games, making sure the webpages are viewed how they are supposed to be viewed (which may actualy be because of incorrect standards in IE)
