    I use Opera since a widget of his (Stay Secure 1.77) tells me that it's the most safest browser but I think Firefox is more practical (with addons and stuff) .

    Anyway, I think most of you like Opera because it's not eating the RAM of your computer :yup:


    Edited: Opera was the first to start with multiple tabs :p

    I personally like firefox for the wide ammount of things you can do with it. Never personally used Opera though.

    Opera is too awkward for me to use. Its got a lot of cool features, but they're mainly for browser-savvy users, and it doesn't contain a lot of the more average-user features. Firefox is very simple to use, and allows you to customize it and make it more complex as you become more and more comfortable with it.

    I gotta say Firefox all the way.
    The add ons are great and can range from macroing, FTP, SEO, and so on.
    Can change to cool skins anytime.
    I love the multiple tabs.

    i like firefox more than opera, but i myself use netscape navigator. it's not very secure, seeing as it's unsupported and all, but i grew up using netscape. plus i like it.

    I like Firefox better because it seems fast and I like the add ons but I rarely use them. The icon also looks awesome.

    Opera all the way. I simply use it because the pages load way faster for me, than with Firefox.

    The bad thing is that the Adblock function of Opera is not that good, whereas Firefox does have an awesome way of blocking images, which makes restocking easier.

    I use IE normally because firefox donesn't work at my school -.- . But I might switch to firefox for safer browsing. Never heard of Opera though.

    I prefer fire fox. It tends to be faster than any other browser I use.
