What Browsers do you use. I use IE,Firefox and Chrome.

Firefox- OK on speed and i dont care about add-ons. I just use firefox for games since its the fastest since IE is slow for games and Chrome won't support them.

Chrome- My Main Browser. I am using the Beta with themes. Its quite fast and the best out of them

Internet Explorer 8- I like the speed of it on Windows 7 and use it on rare occasions as to check msn and such since its best for hotmail and msn news.

Try Google Chrome. I like its speed. And soon it should have Jumplist support and such. Even the beta is stable and great.

I used to use IE 7 and IE 8, but then I switched to Firefox 2 after realizing how fast it is, and now I have firefox 3.5

I like Firefox the best, coming from a former Safari 4 user. I actually started using Firefox as my main browser about 2 months ago because I use an Add-on called X-marks, so I would have to manually put in my bookmarks on Safari when I reinstalled an OS (laziness FTW!!). I am verrry pleased with Firefox because of the customization. Next would be Safari 4 Cool

I usually use my own browser, one that I programmed in Visual Basic. Very Happy

But it has compatibility issues with YouTube Sad , so when I'm on there, I'll use Google Chrome or Firefox

Wow. You can make your own browsers.. Cool!

Anyway on Windows 7 I have decided to use 4 browsers.

IE
Chrome
FF
Safari

I love them all. I think Ill use them all for different things. Cause they all are good at different things.

Yes. Darkside made one too. Cool

Making a web browser in Visual Basic is VERY easy. I can make a basic browser in about 10 minutes. The one I use though took about 30. It has tabs, plus built in Google and YouTube search engines!! But unfortunately YouTube will stop supporting my browser soon. There are compatibility issues. Crying or Very sad

So on getting the Chrome Beta again. I noticed the Beta has got new features.

1. The Jumplist support from the Dev

2. The Restore Removed Thumbnails option


So hopefully now they are in the Beta it will be soon that we get the updated look with themes in the stable release by Windows 7 Release

You should get the chrome beta. Its 3.0 and has themes and such. Its a bit faster than the stable. Now to wait until it is the stable version alien
