I have only tried two.....and I'm thinking there must be something better out there than IE and Google Chrome.

What have you used and what do you like best? Why?

Firefox used to be the cat's meow, but anymore it's become heavy and slow IMO.
There are some lightweight browsers based on the FF (Mozilla) engine such as K-Meleon that zip right along.
http://kmeleon.sourceforge.net/

I use Opera, a Norwegian project.
It's a plush browser with speed.
I like its Speed Dialer which you program with all your favorite places into button form instead of the typical "Favorites" drop-down.
Defaults to tabbed browsing.
Very good, built-in pop up blocker.
Can use plug-ins like FF.
Very customizable, I put a Vista skin on mine.

I use to use Firefox all the time, but now use Chrome because it's so much faster. The only time I will use I.E. is when it is required for compatability with somebody's Site.

I like Chrome.
Not compatible with my OS so I don't see it much.
It is fast which is the first duty of a good browser.
