Easy enough question...

I'm for netscape. I like knowing download speeds and it just works nicer for me, and best of all when it crashes it doesnt' kill your entire windows session along with it.

IE also show you the download speeds (dunno what ver. you've been using). If you don't want IE to take all other windows along with it, then start a new IE window (from desktop). If the previous IE wondow crash, it wont take the 2nd IE window with it.

I prefer IE.. Way faster then Nutscrape. Plus more sites are optimized for IE then NC.

You mean to tell me that IE is actually a web browser? And here I always considered it a POS. Honestly, I've been using netscape since I began surfing the net and I really liked it. I HAVE tried IE and it's just been too different and weird. Plus the fact that I have this aversion with Microsoft. The only times recently that I've used IE was to download netscape :)

Netscape 6.01 rocks! It's better in some ways then Netscape 4.77, but some things I prefer in Netscape 4.77.

Netscape blows.
IE is fine and very good for what it does
I will change to opera as soon as it comes with the same window layout as IE, like each page with each browser instead of big window with all the pages in little windows in that big one.

The new 6.1 PR1 is out. I'm been using it ever since. That's Netscape, of course. Uses the newest Mozilla kernel.

On Linux/FreeBSD: Mozilla, Opera, Konqueror, Galeon (mozilla engine w/o mozilla interface), lastly Nutscrape...

On Windows: IE 6.0 (but it hogs memory, don't feel like reinstalling to get back to 5.5), Mozilla, Opera

Netscape if you are using win98SE

IE if you are using Win2k

I like Opera better than both but it won't let me post on some forums. Once Opera let's me post on Anandtech It will be my permanent browser.

<< say jero, if you dislike M$ so much, why are you using a Windows based OS? >>
