Firefox FTW
Google Chrome FTW
Google Chrome FTW, when playing browser games Firefox FTW
I’m the only one here who uses Internet Exploer, aren’t I?
I think so
i think so. i use internet explorer some times but not all the time
No, I use internet explorer too. Honestly, I think the whole browser snobbery thing is ridonkulous. Use whatever you want, no one gives a crap.
I use it for my pron.
keep it to yourself moron
No, share your pron with others!
There are real reasons not to use IE, such as extreme vulnerability to attacks.
Queen Bass: Do you honestly think it’s a matter of snobbery? Internet Explorer is hated for the pure reason that it’s a piece of outdated crap. With the lone exception of IE9, Internet S**tExplorer can’t display drop shadows, curved edges, text shadows, dynamically generated graphics, CSS-based animations, complex typography features (ligatures and advanced kerning), border images… f**k, it can’t even display opacity properly.
If you see any of the aforementioned features on a site with your pathetically dated, inferior browser, it’ll be because some cynical web designer like myself has gone through and taken the extra time to make it display the same in IE as it does on any proper browser. You can’t imagine how hideous the web would look if every coder decided NOT to babysit your precious, primitive choice of garbled software. Everything would be broken and/or erratic.
Do yourself – and the world, a favour: Get a better browser. I won’t even be picky and nag people into using Firefox (even though it’s my browser of choice). Just use anything but IE, FFS.
I would like to nominate Alhadis for Over Infinity Interwebz.

A very long but educational website on the story of the web browser.
Dude, Y U NO USE CHROMIUM?
Remember: usin IE is the best browser game ever…!
Actually both rock… :3 Firefox has more functions, but chrome is better looking and less resource hungry
i use maxthon. does that make me an idiot?
No, but if your penis is erect for more then 4 hours, consult a doctor.
Epic troll is indeed epic.
and awesome
and a grammar idiot *then =/= than*
Does fixing peoples mistakes make you penis any less small?
Nope
Viagra does
*people’s*your*
It might make his smaller, but it makes mine bigger
Nice incomplete sentence, Ivan.
NO WAY your not a idiot. i don’t no you. but i really no that your not a idiot for using a different internet.
I don’t trust you’re. I no you a idiot.
*Busts out laughing*
Thank GOD I don’t type like that.
But apparently you take 2 minutes to figure that out…
i agree with a you.
Actually both rock :3 The only diffrence is that firefox has more functions while chrome is less resource hungry and better-looking
I second that!
thats true, thats true.
Chrome rules the world!!!
I would probably agree about Firefox, but I am suspicious of Google’s plot to take over the world.
I don’t use Chrome, HotMail, Yahoo or Live, because although I’m not doing anything illegal or immoral, I don’t want these companies monitoring my email or browsing habits.
Use SRware Iron — it’s a variant of Chromium with all the privacy-leakage disabled and/or put under the user’s control. Open-source win, amirite?
I really dont care, at least not until Google decides to post embarrassing search history on Facebook.
agreed!
Chrome FTW!
Opera is without a doubt the best out there.
Opera FTL
FFox/Chrome FTW
Opera FTW!
Beats the crap out of Firefox, though not many people even give it a try.
It’s funny, because it’s true
Google Chrome.
Safari is my choice.
I like it a lot and I have to support it.
Do people even use IE anymore?
only after reinstalling windows to download firefox (:
Only about half of people who browse the web (many of these are the same that believe that IE6 is the epitomy of browsing, without all of those nagging tabs, patched security holes, etc to worry about)
30% use firefox
10% use chrome
5% use safari
1.5% use opera
3.5% use ??
Most useful thing I have ever programmed was a browser that the search bar would only go to the wiki page for it, practically resource nil. And I think only 5 computers have it… What I’m trying to say is there are things like that for your 3.5%
Mobile browsers also get there
Mozilla Firefox.
Number one browser for downloading Google Chrome browser.
So you actually download a browser just to download another browser.
HAAAAAAAA! Win.^^
That may happen.
You know, when one becomes to friggin’ slow you can try an alternative.
I don’t know about you, but I’ve enough RAM and monitor space that I honestly don’t notice a single goddamned thing while using Firefox. Maybe Chrome’s just a choice crutch of people with wussy hardware?
No?
No. Definitely no.
FAIL
I’m using it right now to troll these comments.
TROLOLOLOLOLOL
aaaweeeeeeeeeeee eee eee eeeeee!! LOLOLOLOLOOOLOLO
chrome runs very fast and smooth, and it is very reliable. better than IE and Firefox where 30% of your screen is extra toolbars at the top.
There’s a handful of add-ons/adjustments that can be used to simplify the toolbars. My Firefox window looks much like my Chrome window.
toolbars? What toolbars? I ask only because the most sensible thing to do when prompted to install a toolbar is to say “no”.
Except it doesn’t work with the yahoo toolbar. I installed yahoo messenger recently, and I even un-checked that box, but it STILL put the stupid toolbar on the computer.
Thank goodness for the “add or remove programs” function. XD
It’s the main reason I also use Chrome (when not using FireFox, my main browser). The space is better managed in Chrome.
But you can do some things to FireFox as it is really flexible: install an addon for minimizing the menu (it makes it a small button), move the Bookmarks Toolbar next to the Address Toolbar and then hide the original empty toolbar. I have the small button for menu, function (back/reload/home) buttons, Address Toolbar, Bookmarks Toolbar and Google search box on the same and only toolbar I use in Firefox. Now I have a lot more space.
I use IE for some stuff still, but I’ve pretty much converted to Google Chrome.
Same here – some things just don’t work with Chrome – older stuff.
So friggin true. FireFox rocks.
What no love for Netscape Browser?
Firefox is a result from the Netscape saga!
Mozilla = Netscape
go seamonkey is more netscape like with firefox features like addon.
Google Chrome
Google Chrome is one large keylogger sending every keyboard click of yours to Google Inc.
Go Firefox!
reason i dont use it… dont like to use EVERYTHING from google from search engine to browser, possibly smartphone…
Naww s**t man the corporation is watching you!
But seriously that’s like saying windows is a large keylogger sending information back to microsoft to make your operating system more efficient.
The number one browser for downloading a new browser.
Your argument is invalid.
Firefox for Developing… for everything else: OPERA
Here comes combobreaker:
Opera
Yes! I’m not the only one… XD
i use that as second browser.
i’ll 1up that
Thank you. Opera FTW
Thank you, we are not alone.
Opera FTW!
No Internet Exploder, mostly Opera
I persernally use Internet Explorer, because it’s my favorite. Hey… I’ve been using it for most my life, so I can’t really change something that I know how to use.
I know what you mean. Having to change your habit of double clicking one icon and now clicking another icon instead is a life changing experience.

You belong on Failblog. Now get off our internetz.
IE: for tweens or people with heavy retardation.
Or your parents who just got a computer and don’t know how to use it
… a.k.a heavy retardation its 2010 welcome to the WorlD of ToMmOrRoW~
What do you know so well on IE?
Bookmarks are the same (actually in IE they are called Favorites)
Address Bar is a bar where you write the address to navigate to; it can’t be different
Refresh/Back/Home Buttons are just some buttons, the same functionality.
The search bar is a bar where you enter some words to search for in Google/etc.
Almost everything is done easier and faster in Firefox (for emptying cache/etc. you can use ca keyboard shortcut: Ctrl+Shift+Del).
After a day using FireFox or Chrome you won’t like going back to IE.
I don’t see what is so different in using another browser, especially Firefox, as it’s built to help people coming from IE, it even has a help menu for them.
Google Chrome. The number one browser for downloading Internet Explorer.
I usually use Internet Explorer with addons disabled to install Chrome.
I sell used computers, so I install chrome often.
If I had the chrome installer on a thumbdrive, I wouldn’t need IE at all.
well put it on a flash drive then. it’s not hard!
i never use the same browser for more than a month. i’m constantly switching between chrome, opera, safari, firefox (IF i decide to use chatzilla), maxthon, space time, lunascape etc. The only time i ever use IE is to download chrome when i wipe my hard drive. i’m browser mad. beat that!
IE just sux, every other browser is better then that.
wow, from the sound of it there’s a good chance you watch more pron then i do.
Abandoned IE some years ago – now mostly use Chrome with Firefox as a no. 2 browser for the sites that don’t work in Chrome (it’s the sites’ fault, not Chrome’s)
Using this combo on Win XP, Vista and 7 (Netbook, desktop and laptop repectively) and Ubuntu Linux on a laptop.
Opera!!!!!!!
+100
Firefox FTW!!
IE is actually a developer’s nightmare with how little it follows regulations for opening pages properly.
So true….I ALWAYS use Internet Explorer to download another browser. Unless i already have that other browser…then i don’t need to download another browser.
Kids that think they are cool kids like Chrome, people who are serious about internet safety, but use a pc anyway :p use Firefox. Old folks, and people who don’t know any better use IE, Nerds and those who are into internet safety use Safari on an apple, people who think they are cool kids, but are stuck 4 years in the past use Opera.
Nerds who are into internet safety use safari on an apple…
Now you’re just trolling, aren’t you? Everyone knows linux is the safest of them all, the most lightweight of them all and most indie of them all. No where near a nerd would touch an apple.
Apple are for housewives and bratty children who rather look at the looks than the specs.
No, macs are for people who look past specs and pay attention to things like build quality, reliability, stability, and if it’s a laptop… a multi touch trackpad that actually works as advertised.
And don’t pull that “I build my own” crap. You can’t just compare Ghz numbers, you have to use the same components. I’ve tried, and I can’t get the parts necessary to build a mac pro killer (12 core xeon w/ up to 32 gigs ECC RAM) with a comparable warrantee for a significantly lower cost than a mac pro, and that’s not taking into account the lack of iLife (which I actually use for more than just making pro-mac arguments) lack of comparable case (the mac pro is divided into compartments for better cooling, a motherboard with 2 of the correct sockets won’t fit into a thermaltake level 10, water cooling is a cop out… you’re practically begging to have to buy another rig ASAP… apple was the first to offer a pre built machine with water cooling, and the first to GTFO.) and the time lost actually building the damn thing and making linux do everything I can do on Mac OS… it’s just a f**king waste of time, and time is money.
I play around with linux, sure, but it’s nothing more than a toy when you think about the fact that it’s actually cheaper to build a supercomputer by clustering macs…
Nerds don’t use computers from Apple. I once dreamed I had to use a Mac. What a nightmare!
“Build a system that even a fool can use and only a fool will want to use it.” – Edward A Murphy
You misspelled “Terds” there.
I’d like to agree with the other chaps on this point…
Apple just in general… sucks bill gate’s balls
Seriously? Apple? SAFE? No. Just no. In the pwn2own contest (translate that as Hack to own for simplicity) the mac is ALWAYS the first computer to fall. In a record breaking 10 SECONDS last contest. Safari is right up there with IE in terms of lack of safety. So be smart. Get windows and any browser except safari or IE. Or Linux (preferably Linux mint) and any browser you want. Don’t be an elitist douche bag. Get something with POWER!
You have it the other way around. People who are stuck in the past DON’T use Opera. Google some benchmarks for Opera 10.50 and Opera 10.60. Opera is blazing fast now.
Went to Chrome from IE. I didn’t have many problems with IE, I just fancied a change.
there is so little difference between them all.
enough to have a favorite but not nearly enough to bother boosting the one you use like it matters.
THANK YOU!!!
Although I only use IE out of preference. I grew up with it, is all.
There’s a huge difference, you just don’t care because you don’t build web sites.
browser is not philosophy
CHROME!
Seamonkey forever!
true.
Chrome, Opera, Firefox. in that order. thank you Explorer for providing other browsers.
Lol, my new laptop I bought didn’t even come with IE, it came with Chrome xD
Chrome, when you trust google! We all know they are sooooo trustworthy, and would never snoop on us!
But IE loads faster than firefox.
Half of it it’s always running in your Windows, that’s why it seems to load itself faster.
You only do that once in a few hours, but loading pages you do hundreds of times.
Last editions of Firefox loads quite ok and page browsing is very very fast + you have thousands of Addons to customize and improve it as you wish.
IE9 is a replica of Google chrome right…? So, Bing (Because It’s Not Google) chrome…
Only Google Chrome
I’m guessing bill gates has taken over your brain… here, let me fix that for you…
you can’t do that because anything related to microsoft fills your brain with more crap than a sewer
Ill take my somewhat glitchy microsoft stuff over mac’s things that i have to pay 3 times as much for.
Who says he’s talking about Mac? There are more than 2 operating systems out there.
Hey Mavis: You’re in luck, because you don’t need to pay anything to afford a better browser. Firefox, Safari, Chrome and even friggin’ Opera are all free for download.
Just so everybody knows, us web developers are getting pretty sick and tired of supporting Internet Explorer. The longer you force yourselves to use a s**t browser, the sooner sites will start looking blander, and chunkier, and plainer, than if you’d be viewing them on a competent browser.
Fully agree with Alhadis.
I don’t support IE6 any longer for the web sites I make, it does not worth the effort. Reports on browsers usage look better every day, in Europe Firefox leading already in many countries.
One more thing: all sites buit on WordPress should use a plugin like No More IE6! Please do that and maybe make it No more IE7 also!
Lynx is the best!
I’m trying to convert my boyfriend off IE… He just wont listen D:
I use Firefox, with chrome appearance addon, coral-IE tab, and the possibility to use favorite startpage like google Chrome, so I don’t need to switch browsers.
The speed of FF, the possibility for IE with ABP, and appearance of Chrome/
IE6 ftw. All those sites that tell me to update, blow me!
Most developers would, but not the way you imagine and it involves pain.
You won’t have sites to watch soon enough as most of us will stop supporting your IE6. Those sites will look like sh*t and will not work. I’ve built already some.
This comment is an outright lie. There’s no such thing as people who use IE6 by preference. The people still using IE6 are only using it at work because their employer built systems specifically to work with that browser and they haven’t fixed it yet.
My company no longer supports IE6, thank goodness. It was a huge time suck to hack correct, standard code to make it work in IE6 and it made no sense to support such an insecure browser.
I can’t believe all the people using a browser to download another. I skip IE and just open a command prompt and ftp mine.
Do you feel big?
No. I’m a just a little critter. And old. Ah, the days of dos 6.22 and Windows 3.1.
IE Firefox/Opera. And IE Firefox/Opera > IE.
Google Chrome 1 Beta is way much better than IE9 Beta.
Lemme edit that:
Google Chrome < Firefox/Opera < IE
Google Chrome 1 Beta is way much better than IE9 Beta.
I havent used “IE” in so long that it stop working on my pc, wont even open when i click on it lol
Wonder how many commentators actually compare the browsers (BTW, I’ve used them all). Not hatin’, just sayin’.
IE9
Now it’s fast, reliable, and has the best Protected Mode on Vista/7 for higher security also on still unknown malware.
^this.
I’m not sure exactly where it became part of internet culture to hate on IE, but it’s retarded. IE rocks.
If you were actually smart, you’d know why people hate IE.
Safari is the top rated in terms of speed, add ons, customer satisfaction, etc. with FF and Chrome close behind. I’m on a Mac so I use Safari and I love it! I’ve tried IE, FF, Chrome, and Opera just to see and I don’t really like any of them as much as Safari, but everyone has a right to an opinion.
Why do you say that i am using this or that. Or this is number one. I think IE, Firefox and Chrome are beneficial in some areas. Of course some never know this.
Stuff like firefox and chrome are great if you take care of your computer and do regular cache wipes and the like, however if you don’t take care of this stuff in my experience firefox ends up almost freezing the computer, all because my mom doesn’t understand the meaning of Quickclean and History Cache Deletion. IE lasts a long time, yes its slower than them all at first but it keeps its value in the long run, so i run firefox myself and i tell my parents to use IE because it doesn’t seem to slow everything up when not maintained.
I used IE to download Firefox and when that got too slow I used FF to download Avant which was also slow then I went back to FF temporarily before downloading Chrome which I love. Although Safari is an adequate back up
Tried CHROME it can not play flash movies on a lot of sites, will not let you rename links on your desk top, .If I use anything other than IE , then my system dies within 2 weeks of viruses and I have refomat, and re-install WINDOWS.
On APPLE I hate that over priced, underperforming crap for trendster retards so much that , I Will not even own an iPOD. But as far as I know WINDOWS and IE has more minor flaws, but APPLE OS and browsers have more major/ critical system killer flaws.
Are you kidding me? Then learn to browse the web, cause i haven’t used IE for years, and the only reasons i had to reinstall Windows, was NOT something related to my browser.
Well bully for you.
I am not telling people to use IE just saying what my experience is with other browsers.
If you are totally gay for your non MS browser that is fine. But do not get p*ss*d with others who do not goatsie themselves to your pet browser.
Thing is if you want the most fully functioning,and non hassle browser it has to be IE unless you use QuickTime as your media viewer, and iTUNES for your music player. CHROME seems to work really well for this, until the viruses, malware, adware, SPYWARE and all the rest of that crap gets through your firewall, 3 anti virus, adware, malware, spyware blockers, killers, removers apps thanks to CHROME . Whilst using IE all that keeps my system safe. So hmm I forget how to use the web when I am using other than IE that is so logical—not.
To be fair I have pretty much only used most other browsers whilst they were in BETA, and did not like them. CHROME is the 1 I used recently( which killed my system again for the 3rd time).
Also if IE is so bad why does SONY use it on the PS3, considering that it is from their rival who is beating them in this/ next gen gaming ?????
MrHaxx1, don’t worry about him. He is smarter than thousands of security expert in the world and millions of people using Firefox and Chrome without any problem (I cannot say the same about IE users).
The good thing is that in EU next windows don’t have IE preinstalled, it asks you which one you want to install (Firefox/Chrome/Ie/etc.). I’m waiting for this to be standard.
1) You clearly have no idea how computer security works.
2) You clearly have no idea what a firewall is.
3) The PS3 most certainly does not use IE. It uses a browser called NetFront.
Even though i hate Internet Explorer, Internet Explorer 9 is kinda awesome.
Yes, it reminds me of a Chrome ripoff, but i find the webpage loading ALOT faster.
But i prefer Firefox, because of all the awesome addons.
FireFox rulzzzzz
I once installed firefox on everyone’s work computer and then changed the firefox icons to internet explorer icons.
No one knew the difference.
Internet explorer is the worst browser, and is always behind in supporting current development practices. Traditionally, it has been the VHS player, while web developers want to produce Blue Ray.
Firefox for general browsing (like here), while Chrome for homework (since my uni’s website crashes with FF occasionally and I have no friggin’ clue why)
and IE for ONE website only, because that website would not work properly on FF =___=
*reminisces over netscape navigator* Ah the good old days.
You guys steal from motifake.com a lot.
Normally I would agree. Internet explorer 5-8 are horid compared to firefox or even chrome. Not at all standards compliant, buggy as all heck, insecure and bloated just to name a few of their faults.
Internet explorer 9 though is a totally different beast. It’s like the difference between Windows 7 and Windows Me. Too bad Microsoft seems intent to restrict it to Vista and Windows 7, but it’s a good browser.
I’m sure Microsoft will still figure out how to screw it up before it officially launches, but so far they seemed to remember suddenly how to code a genuinely good product again.
“The number one browser for downloading a better browser.”
I totally agree! This is what my IE was used for every time I installed a new Win OS but never thought of it this way!
this sentence should be a quote!
i skip the whole process and have the installer for chrome and firefox on a pen drive. i use firefox mostly mainly cause of the addons like noscript grease monkey and adblock plus, and the fact i can force the text and background colour to look like a green screen, green text/boarders and black background
Too bad that IE9 and IE10 are better than the competitors. microsoft finally did it right.
I use Chrome 13 and IE 9/10 depending on what I need to do. With the release of IE9 it doesn’t matter what browser you use any more…It all depends on personal preference…also there is a way to make the advanced CSS stuff work on IE 9> its something to do with create IE css class or something…I dont remember because I havent actually coded HTML in a LOOOOONG time…
Google Chrome all the way.
