Default Best internet browser; Opera.

Hi, my mate told me to use Opera as its better than Internet Explorer and Firefox. Firefox kills your computer, here's a link I just thought I'd tell you lot http://www.opera.com/ Check it out.

Opera is ok, I have no slating of it. I just wouldn't say its 'better' than Firefox.

I've used opera and safari. Still prefer IE and firefox. I think it's just because I'm more used to them. Firefox is apprently the most secure.

It doesn't really KILL your computer, it does use up quite a bit of memory depending on how much you use it.

Anyway, I don't have a problem with Opera, but I like Firefox and Safari better.

How does Firefox kill your computer? I used Opera for a month but then I discovered Firefox and I liked it better.

That's what I wanna know. All I use is Firefox (IE decided not to work anymore) and if that's bad then I might change browsers.

I like the way Opera works but there's a problem with viewing vids and animation, so I use Firefox. If they've sorted that problem I'd go back to using Firefox.

Opera is god awful. I often got huge amounts of junk mail from them too. They appear to be a lot seedier than the likes of Firefox, which is also incredibly overated.

I just use IE. It gets the job done and it has never crashed for me. If you want to use firefox, use it, but I hate all the people who go ''YAY im freeee from micro$oft!!!''.
