Web Browsers

[graham35]

Which in your opinion is the best web browser, free or paid for.
I have been using IE (6) for years but have just downloaded Opera 7 and find it very fast and easy to learn, however always happy to try something different, there is life beyond Microsoft (apparently)
This information should be useful to all web masters so they can make their web sites compliant to the various browsers, or at least to the most popular ones

27 views and only 3 on the poll, come on - it only takes a second or 2

Funny that no one can just do the poll. I have always used Netscape. But since I changed to Linux I use Mozilla. Basically the same thing. They are all powered by Geko preccessor.

Well thanks for the few replys to my poll, 80 views so far and 7 on the poll

Just to remind you we are not voting for a new President or Prime Minister - but when the poll numbers get above 100 all income tax through out the world will be abolished - yes zero taxes - sadly we are not going to get there............... :roll:

The 80 views are made up of at least about 60 views by bots and spiders who don't vote :lol:

I thought it may have been interesting - I know I can get some idea from my stats via STATCOUNTER, but I was actually hoping the fors and against may have been aired. Never mind

HHHMmmmmnnnn what shall I do next :lol:

597 Views and a wholesum 9 votes, thankyou everyone, excellent contribution to my poll.........

Anyway, I am pleased with my new Opera 7 browser - its so much faster than IE6, and much more interesting to use :D

Oh and thanks also to the 6 spiders and 1 bot that entered the poll 8)

I was tempted to try Mozilla Firefox .9, but I download Opera first, and for now I am going to stick with it, however the reviews on Firefox are all very good, so I may try it in the near future - then decide which one to keep - HOWEVER it goes to show how naff IE is, when you try others that steam ahead on speed and style.
Try these other browsers you guys - you will not be disappointed and most of all, they are free.

I have IE 6 I think. I dont know how to check all I know is that it came with my computer. I never heard of the others. ( I have heard of Netscape does that still exist?)

Click on help at the top of your browser window adn then select About Internet Explorer - it will tell you the version.

Netscape still exists and some folks still use it, though many other browsers have spring up from it.
