| I know that polls are kind of lame and not the best thing but i want to know what browsers you use! After choosing which browser you use, please state the reason why you use it and not the others. If you are an advocate for one particular browser, now might be the time to convince others to switch! I am a firefox user. I started using firefox right from the start... ever since it was first called Phoenix. I like firefox because the interface is very nice, complete with a search bar, and a favourites bar. The search bar is very small but serves a great purpose and its very convenient. The favourites bar is also very convenient for those sites that you visit often. One of the main reasons why most people switched to firefox from IE is because its more secure. I don't know how secure it is, but im trusting that it is (sometimes you have to). There have been alot of bugs as of late, such as memory leaks and bloating. I'm praying that Mozilla is working hard at fixing these problems and not drinking bubbly, basking in their fame. Lets hear it! ![]() I Like Watercooling. D-Tek Fuzion, MCP655, MCR220 |

| I don't know how to vote in your poll since I use FireFox, Netscape and Opera equally pretty much. You see 3 of us get on the computers we have and each uses a different browser on each computer. :? |

| I don't know how to put this, but, I'm kind of a big deal. | Firefox most of the time. When I do need to fire up IE, I use CrazyBrowser, a tabbed browsing shell with mouse gestures. |

| I wonder how secure Firefox will remain with so many people using it now. Seems to me that it will become a big target for the scum that proliferate the internet. |
