Google Chrome

I used to swear by FireFox. I'm not sure what's up with it lately, but it sure is a dog compared to Google Chrome. This browser is fast!

That is all.

I'd have no problem going back...but they need to do something about the speed. It really has slowed A LOT in the last couple of months.

I don't like firefox. I still use IE7. I tried chrome, but was turned off with the lack of MMB click-scrolling.

I check out chrome, its nice and easy, no frills. But I still love my FF. no issues with speed on mine. Go to mozilla and get the 3.1 beta. I like it better than 3.0 even though its still beta.

Two words:
Crazy Browser
That's really all you need to know.

Crazy Browser uses the IE rendering engine. If you want a modified IE, look at Maxthon.

I switched from Firefox to Chrome the day it came out. I have not opened Firefox since. Chrome opens faster, surfs the web faster, does everything faster.

Has anyone tried the Apple safari for Windows? I just downloaded it not long ago and its super fast. I also like the way the text looks on it. Its a little backwards compared to IE or FF but its not hard to get used to. I like it.

I downloaded the Windows version of Safari when it was first offered - and it installed Bonjour and some other Apple crap. Bye bye!

I use Itunes so I have to have that Bonjour program so I didnt really care about it. By the way, what does it do?
