You should try Opera or Firefox Sunny it much easier to moderate the site and save you having to have lot of browsers open all the time.

I use Firefox when I'm on the forum as it has a great spell check. And I use Opera when surfing.

Opera 8 and Firefox 1.5 (I think). Voted Firefox as it really helped and was recommended by a another member.

J.C you can spell check in Opera 9 as well. Just right click in the text input box. Not sure if that works in Opera 8.

I love how www.ie7.com is a link to FireFox.


I use both FireFox and IE7, though probably FireFox more.

Firefox. I prefer Opera but there is a problem with animation and with playing video. Does anyone know how to get around it.

I'm flabbergasted by the number of people who use IE6. PC wrold website voted it the 8th worst software product of all time.

PCWorld

To check out the poll.

Opera 9 because I use the built-in e-mail program and RSS feed reader, and it has a lot of good features (though not every site displays properly with it - better in this respect than previous versions but still not as good as Firefox or IE).

Although, increasingly, I use Firefox 2 because this laptop doesn't have much memory and Opera uses tons of memory and resources these days.

I dunno if you notice but CSS standards in IE are really poor and theres quite a lot of website which use CSS that wont display properly in IE but will in Firefox.

Altho firefox can be a resource hog at times but FF3 is supposed to fix that

I haven't been finding that on the my old SUN workstation. If anything it seems a lot faster than Firefox 2 and it uses less memory (101 Megabytes compared to 126 Megabytes used by Firefox.

One thing I do like about Opera is that when you fill in a form and accidentally go to a different page on the TiBB you can press the back button and what you typed is still there. The only other browser I have used that has done that is Safari on the MacIntosh. Also with Opera I find the fonts look better, the pages look cleaner and the spell checker is better.

Never used the mail or chat features so I can't comment on them.
