Alright, I've used IE pretty much forever and only stopped to try Safari which I absolutely hated.

Anyway, Myself, being a dumb-ass, never found out how to delete cookies for IE, therefore I asked Scott via MSN.

He, being the smart-ass he is said;
"If it's IE, than it's easy."
"Control Panel -> Remove Programs -> Internet Explorer"

After which he said something about Firefox.
Leading to a light bulb over my head.
I decided to try out Firefox and I have to admit; Firefox kicks some massive ass.

Anyway, here's a poll.
Which browser do you use?
Firefox all the way,but Opera is my second favorite.
Safari!
Fuck you.

Firefox is my lover.

I really like Firefox, but when it's running my CPU Usage shoots up and lags my computer. :(
Good to see you decided to join the year 2005 and get Firefox ;)

I've been sort of so-so about the last few versions, but I'm still using it. Mostly because I love the Ad Block Plus add-on.
I use Opera at home and on my laptop, Firefox at work and at the campus.
Firefox.
And I'm back to Firefox. (Woah, no lag! :D)
Firefox 3.6 beats the hell out of anything since the 2.x versions. When 3.0 and 3.5 were released it became slow and bogged down (despite their supposed memory leak fixes), and 3.5.7 was the worst of all, locking up every time I closed it. It's still not as fast as I would like it to be, but it seems they're trying actually compete with someone other than IE now.
Firefox eats lots of CPU and lags badly.

I prefer Google Chrome.
Firefox is a resource hogger, but Chrome on the other hand, isn't half as bad, but its still a resource hogger.

Chrome took up a total of 258,284 mem usuage.

Firefox took up a total of 800K+ from me.

Chrome is the faster browser, but I still prefer Firefox sometimes.

You must be doing something wrong. Firefox only uses 84,000 K, and Chrome uses even less.

No, I'm not doing anything wrong.

This is what I get for starting the same windows that I had open in Chrome.

Firefox was a clean install, which means it didn't have any add-ons or anything.

So if I'm doing something wrong, then tell me, but this is what I get, but all those resources that Chrome takes, doesn't slow down the browser at all, unlike Firefox.
why do you have multiple chrome processes

It was like that when I installed. I have no other idea why I do.
Deleting the cookies is about the same for every browser...it's usually under tools.
Chrome has multiple processes if you have multiple sites open.

Firefox is buggy. When you close site which you opened before, your CPU won't decrease. When I started firefox it was using only 80MB, after 1 hour it increased to 400MB :/
I use Mozilla Firefox, but only due to the fact it is the most Web 2.0 compatible web browser currently available to users. I have tried every other browser on that list and one or another has issues I just don't like.

Internet Explorer seems to be a resource hog, it has security issues and it's annoying.

Safari can be a pain in the ass to configure. I really hate the "most recently visited" page that always pops up and a few web pages I frequent simply don't display properly with it.

Chrome, is by no doubt, the fastest web browser I have ever used. But there are still a lot of websites that don't work properly. Actually out of the 10 or so websites I visit on a daily basis, about 5 of them don't work properly or display properly. Not only that, sometimes Chrome simply refused to work properly, it would give me errors when trying to even display a page when any other browser would at least load it. It also seems prone to crashing. It feels difficult to me to configure it the way I want it, there aren't enough buttons, and adding bookmarks feels like a pain in the ass.

I never used AOL, that shit is born from the Devil's loins.
Awhile back when I was like 6 - 9, I had to use dial-up and AOL was all I could connect with.

AOL is slow as hell. .
