What internet browser???

[b3nje]

What do you use and why??

IE has been giving me a lot of issues recently with my most popular websites.

I now have Opera also and find myself using both at the same time for different sites.

This sucks...

 

[ollie]

Firefox.

 

[b3nje]

Thanks for the helpful input Ollie...as usual!!!

Any compatability issues with java or flash or anything like that??!

 

[Limca]

firefox.. easy to use

 

[DrR]

Firefox as i don't trust I.E although for somereason firefox crashes a lot.

 

[RSi Dave]

IE7 with IE7Pro installed to run certain user scripts

 

[b3nje]

Just got firefox now and it still has problems loading certain sites.

I've used internet explorer for 5years or whatever with no problems what so ever until these past few days.

Virus scanned/spyware scanned/check disk/cookies cleaered all that s**t and nothing!

 

[Adam]

[stinka]

Epiphany?

 

[ViolentJ]

Tried it and wasn't keen.

Used FF before I moved to Linux, guess I just got too used to it.

It's all about Galeon..
I remember when it first came out (and I think I was still using Netscape!) and it was awesome.. Galeon 1.0 was out before Mozilla 1.0.. so not much competition at the time..

Then it got angry, then Epiphany was born.. and, it's never been the same.
Galeon kinda stopped, Epiphany is useless..

I use Firefox on Linux too now..

 

[Mells]

Direfox for me. Its not that bad. Have to use IE6 at work and its total pische!

 

[Tom]

Safari/Camino

When the new firefox is out i might go back, but i like safari 3/camino.

Opera 8.65/Mini for mobile use.

 

[Munday]

Firefox, although its not as reliable as everyone makes out.

 

[J203425]

Firefox 2 FTW


It never crashes on me

 

[Alex H]

Sorry to drag this up again, but Firefox! ......

 

[KDF]

erm.. ye firefox..


watch out my fellow sysadmins.. IE7 = mandatory update feb 12th... especially if you have WSUS on auto approve.... there are workarounds though.

 

[daydotz]

opera mainly ie 6 or firefox if opera cant handle something

 

[ViolentJ]

Still using FF now with a Safari skin and Safari style progress bar. Looks nicer and displays bookmark folders a lot nicer.

Before anyone says why not use Safari then? A few sites are not Safari compatible e.g. photobucket uploading is hit and miss with bulk uploader not working at all.

FireFox, nothing else gets a look on my my computer.

That shot of Eva Mendez gives me thoughts!

 

[Mike_182]

IE7 here, no issues with it except when I run it in 64-bit mode... No flash!

 

[Rich]

Safari - as for why, it looks prettier than Firefox !

Shite on Windows...

 

[Munson]

My default browser is Opera. I've used Firefox and Safari as well as the IEs, and I always go back to Opera

 

[dick]

opera for most, IE for iplayer and itv.co.uk

 

[tommyboy]

Firefox.

The only issue I've seen is IE7 automatcally enabling security (2k3 Advanced Security stuff which had previously been uninstalled), which broke a load of Terminal Server sessions - they couldn't load remote apps.

Apart from that, it's been pretty painless!

 

[Cookie]

My junior sysadmin has broken WSUS, so theres no danger of IE7 getting rolled out
