				So, I figure I'll come back out of the gates strong with a new topic.
 
 
What internet browser do we all use?
 
 
Me, I've been using Mozilla Firefox for the longest time. Though, recently, I've been having a little fling with Google Chrome. It's nice, but a little too simplistic for my tastes. I'll probably end up going back to Firefox.

				I can't seem to con Windows XP into loading the installer program for 8 correctly.
 
 
I use Flock/Google, while my mom is extremely fond of Firefox.
 
 
"IE" is considered a cursive word in this house. lol

				IE is like the person you see at the supermarket at 3am who looks strange, and you just want to avoid.  Thats why I use FIREFOX FTW!!! Open Source-GNU    I love Open Source things, they make my life so much simpler.  Only downside is FF doesn't have multi-core browsing yet...

				I use Firefox and Elinks. Since I don't have Windows and just use Linux, I don't even think about IE anymore.

Maybe that person thinks it's kind of strange that you're in the supermarket at 3 am.

				Usually that person in the supermarket that you see at 3 am and avoid is having an indepth conversation with themselves. I am all for Firefox. Things just seem to load and go faster in this browser. I have heard, although I cannot substantiate this, that Firefox lets less viruses though.

				Firefox Only.  If I could uninstall IE, I would.  It is the WORST BROWSER EVER.  It is sooooooooo unstable.  Chrome isn't faster than Firefox either.  Although it is cleaner, and can run HTML 5 apps better, it is just a generally worse browser.

				I just started using firefox, but I discovered when I'm on my desktop I can only log into stv with internet explorer. It works fine on my laptop though.
