i have both Firefox and Chrome, Chrome is generally faster but it freezes so bad. Firefox slows down my comp and i don't even have a load of plugins. i use Firefox mainly.
I switched from Internet Explainer 6 to Firebox last year
firefox and sometimes opera
Firefox and occasionally Google Chrome.
IE, and i don't see why so many ppl hate it
in fact i've had more problems with FF than with IE
But in the end it all works just fine i guess (never tried anything else than FF and IE though)

^ Yeah, me neither, IE never gave me problems XD It would freeze sometimes but I was never like "OMG I HATE IE".
I'm on my laptop right now so I'm using Safari, but I voted IE. *salute*
(I have to admit though, Safari is so fast and wonderful~ XD)

I mainly switched from IE because I hated the versions after 6 so I stuck with 6. When 8 came out I figured maybe it wouldn't be wise to keep on 6, since they'll probably stop doing security updates for it soon XD

But since you're using Firefox now, you can download that Pupe Helper add on XDI like FF because of Foxkeh. Even if he does like to slow down the internet.

I use Firefox and I love the addons I use for it. I know with some of these addons it makes the browser slower and eat up more system resources (but my system is pretty beefy so whateva) but I can't live without my adblock addon. Best addon ever. The few times I do have to use IE, some websites I go to I don't even recognize because they look so different with all the ads.
I also just feel more secured with Firefox. I use WOT and NoScript addons, so I don't have to worry so much about bad sites. However my over cautious web browsing stems from my WoW days. The WoW forums are infested with Chinese hackers that post links to faulty sites all the time that attempt to download malware onto your machine. They're usually easy to catch because they'll have titles like "SEX LEG LADY AT POOL!" or some other hilarious broken English.
My hate from IE though comes from work more then anything else these days. We use IE 6 which I don't care what people say, it blows ass. We also have to use a lot of shitty broken software that doesn't work in anything except IE 6. God, they need to seriously fire some of the developers in my company because so much of the in house shit I use is just so buggy and broken. Because of gaytarded HR shit, I had to apply for my promotion. I had to go home to apply using this awful application that was completely broken in new IE or FF. So I wrote this large rant to the IT department in their "How did we do" survey. I was actually contacted sometime later (and I was pretty embarrassed) but they where happy I actually wrote this. Many of them have been pushing to get most of our software up to date with the rest of the world and going to use my rant as an example.

I use IE. I've used Firefox before, but my familiarity with IE makes using anything else a bit awkward.

Firefox and Chrome
Google Chrome
it's the best, and I won't ever change it I think
everybody should give it a long try till they get learn to use it and then see if Mozilla is better... cuz is not ;D
it does has some problems still, but minimal stuff... it's still the fastest browser out there
cause it comes with windows... and windows comes with computers, that's enough reason for most people, lol

My old WoW guild, the guy that manages the guild website is setting it up so if you attempt to go to it on any version of IE except the current one. You are redirected to a page with the caption YOU ARE AN IDIOT and with links below to other browsers.
