Wondering what our members like as far as browsers go and why...
i used to always use firefox but started having issues with it last year and switched to Opera. I like how the bookmarks are set up and its smooth and fast havent had any issues with it
I'm a Mac user so mainly Safari but occasionally Firefox because it is better for joining HJSplit videos. I haven't tried Opera anyone else have any suggestions:confused:
I'm a huge fan of Chrome - small footprint, plenty of add-ons, and shares your bookmarks (and passwords) across multiple computers.
any chance of a thumbnail expander add on for that donkey?
I'm using Opera since 2007 - it can handle more than 50 (or 100 !) tabs of FF attachments without slowdown !
Started using FF due to ad block and haven't bothered to look elsewhere.
I'm also a chrome user. I was using Firefox for a long time but had started experiencing problems with it over the past few months.
I use Firefox because of the Bazzacuda Image Saver Plus AddOn
One has to use Firefox instead of Safari because of the issues with downloading HjSplit files correctly. :)

At FacialForum and other site where I download pictures and movies, I use FireFox because of 4 nice addons: DownThemAll, Save Images, dragdropupload, ThumbnailExpander. I use the newest version of FireFox without problems (my PC has Windows 7).
At other sites I use a mix of MS Internet Explorer, FireFox, Chrome, Safari, and Opera.
I mainly use Firefox, like others I think the add ons, especially downthemall are fantastic, but for some reason when I want to post hjsplit files to FF I have to use IE as Firefox wont upload!
Confused but happy with Firefox! :rolleyes:
Firefox mostly, though I use Opera at some other specific places, seems to work better.
Seem to be elements of all browsers I like and dislike, a pity you cannot pick and choose the bits you like from each, end up with a supercharged mixture FireIEChrOperafox
Personally I would never browse porn sites without using Firefox + the "NoScript" add-on. It turns off all javascript and embedded flash on all webpages by default, you have to selectively enable the sites that you want to allow to run script. It takes a little getting used to, but the added security is well worth it.
Pair that with Adblock Plus and DownThemAll and you have the perfect porn browsing experience :)
Also it's worth looking into the 'portable edition' of Firefox, which you can stick on a flash drive for easy and effective hiding of porn browsing history if that's an issue for you :)
FireFox FTW!
Chrome - simply quicker than the rest. Though it is prone to issues with flash...
I currently mix between Firefox and chrome. Chrome for general browsing and Firefox for FF and other sites that will require download/uploading ;)
It's interesting how chrome has had a big uptake so quickly and also surprised people use opera here. Nothing wrong with it, it's a good browser, but I haven't heard many people using it as a desktop browser - nice surprise :)
I am thinking of checking out Chrome. I gave up on IE years ago and have been using Firefox for four years or so. But the recent updates have been a major headache. I hated losing my Google search bar and now since I updated my Adobe Flash player some glitch is keeping all vids from running in Firefox. Just getting to be a royal pain.
A Firefox user here for years, even from the early day of Netscape Navigator.
I can't say that I have ever had any problems with it in any of it's versions but I must admit it has been getting rather tiresome lately with the ridiculous number of updates it keeps issuing.
That and the fact that Firefox is not testing and fixing problems related to all those updates. This last one was a problem with Flash Player's plugin. I finally found out the latest version of Firefox won't support Real Player on some systems. So I had to disable the Web Download & Recording in RealPlayer, which made it useless for saving flash vids. Had to install another addon just to make up for that. At least vids will play for me now. Just a pain when crap like this happens only because the update f***ed things up. :(
