Explorer, Safari or Firefox?

Which is it? I'm just curious.

Firefox, because it's (just a bit) more secure then IE, it's more frequently updated, it has awsome plugins and it makes for easy browsing .

I'm attatched to IE. I'm used to it more than Firefox. I do have it, though. And I do go on it.

Given the choice I use Firefox, ergo I'm voting for it. My current computer isn't actually powerful enough to sustain it, though, so I'm using Internet Explorer for now.

I prefer Firefox (yay for tabs!) but it does seem a tad buggy at times. And there are times when it doesn't do things that seem obvious, like letting you rearrange tabs (though I got a plugin to fix that) or allow downloads to stop and restart at a later time. But mostly it's great and it pisses me off when I'm at university and only IE is available.

Safari. It's simple, and I'm too lazy to download Firefox.

However, like Firefox, it can't view certain websites out there.

Firefox all the way. As for the websites that won't show in Firefox, give this a try...

It's got a clock speed of 233MHz and can only run with a screen resolution of 800x600, and in 16 colours only. It also has no sound.

Heh, no, because it's not actually 17th Century. It used to be a lot better, but once it got a problem. We got a technician to take it away and fix it, and it came back with less oomph. Pretty weird, really.

I've only ever used IE. Which makes me retro and cool since everyone uses Firefox nowadays.
