like this one:

http://www.avantbrowser.com/

stable, reliable, fast, being continually improved. ...and still simple. (not so many bells and whistles that just slow it down or are a potential for problems)

based on IE core technology........so compatability is not an issue.

Konqueror and Firefox.

Konqueror, not just because it came with operating system, I find it to be very good and a lot better features and more features than my IE days. It also has tabbed browsing which is a plus. Plus it is a lot easier to use than IE and I can set it up to "emulate" other browsers like Netscape, IE, Mozilla etc. It never gets hijacked either like IE.

Firefox- because it is a very good browser, has tabbed browsing and so many features you can add to it. Never gets hijacked. A very good browser as well.

I am still debating whether to try the Mozilla browser but I think it is similar to netscape.

I use Mozilla Firefox

It is a good, quick, simple, browser and it is compatible with both Windows and Linux. I used Netscape for years but I thought it was getting a little cumbersome.

Konqueror for me.

Stable and secure with many features aside from html - like ftp, rss, fish, samba, file browsing, image browsing, ssh, browser emulation, tabbed browsing, and excellent integration into my KDE desktop.

Definitely Firefox!!

It will soon dominate the world, rendering IE obsolete indefinitely.

Firefox here - it has *distinct* security advantages over IE, as well as allowing a diverse selection of specialized third-party "extensions" (mostly made by interested individuals). I have extensions to facilitate everything from searching scientific databases, to posting on Fark.com.

Firefox of course. Except for those few sites which make you use IE, even then I only switch if it's really worth it.

My preferred Web browser would be Microsoft® Internet Explorer®.

Now, before I am stoned to death for having said so ...

I prefer this Web browser because it is widely supported on the Web, its security is constantly being upgraded through Windows® Update, in addition to far less encoding problems, in my opinion (language encoding — sometimes browsers such as FireFox seem to have issues with Japanese input and output).

I use IE 6 too. I haven't even bothered to install something different to see what the differences would be.....

I've noticed most people here use FireFox, I thought this add-on may be of help for your FireFox browser, it enables you to ignore posts of a particular user, it comes in handy when some posters become "annoying"

phpBB User Hide - Firefox Extension

EDIT: If link doesn't work, copy and paste.

I like Opera, but it's somewhat limited a certain sites I frequent a lot. I use IE and firefox for the most part.
