I personally liked Opera 6 the best. For now I'm sticking with Firebird.

I try them all...
...but always end up going back to IE.
Sometimes I wonder if Mr Gates has found a way to control me.

I'm enjoying Safari at the moment (mac). Quick, blocks pop-ups well, works with all the sites I visit.

I use Opera, since version 7.10, and Mozilla Firebird. Both are excellent replacement browsers for IE in my view, with Firebird loading pages faster... for me anyway.
