Poll question: What web browser are you using?

Edited on Tue Feb-28-06 11:41 PM by JohnnyCougar

I just changed web browsers, but I am wondering how many people use which ones on here.

1. Mostly Firefox

Internet Explorer sometimes to view certain pages.

2. The suite -

But I recently installed the new incarnation (SeaMonkey) on my work computer - I'm working on hacking it a bit to make a custom version for my company and I like it a lot so far. Some neat new features.

4. Firefox

although I'm forced to use IE since Firefox doesn't render certain pages.

5. Firefox primarily...

I use Opera and IE to test websites I design though.

I've grown quite fond of the integrated feel.

9. Green Browser

Yeah, it's an IE shell, but it's also the best, most fluid browser I've ever used.

10. Judging from the results...

…I'd say we have a real streak of disestablishmentarianism going on around here. What are we? Liberals or something? ;)

12. Yes.

Does anyone have a market share report from the general population?

I thought we would be a tad more skewed towawrds Firefox, but never the overwhelming majority!

I just got Opera, and I love it so far. There are only a few sites it acts funky on.

16. I am very surprised indeed

These are the sort of results I would expect to see if this were a Linux geek site...not a political forum.

13. Safari

It does everything I need it to do, including kill pop-ups and pop-unders.

14. Mozilla Suite at home, Firefox at work

I guess eventually I will have to swap Mozilla Suite for Firefox, seeing as they are no longer developing Mozilla...sigh.

17. billyskank -

ya don't have to switch - use SeaMonkey

http://www.mozilla.org/projects/seamonkey/

I prefer the suite myself. And Firefox has a memory leak.

Anyway - I've been playing w/ SeaMonkey a bit recently as I'm working on hacking a custom version for my company. It's everything you're used to, and it has some damned nice new features.

18. I use Safari, but it's sucked so far

I need to figure out what it wrong... it always gets hung up and is way slower than if I switch to running IE on my 5 year old Dell that was not top of the line when we bought it (the Mac is 3 months old)
