Another vote for Firefox, although occasionally I use Opera too.

I used to be a firm fan of IE. It did what I wanted it to do but mates kept telling me to try firefox.

First time I used it I didn't really like it and went back to IE for a couple of months.

Now I use FF all the time. I stuck with it and started like its features. The tabbed browsing is really nice and the plugins are good too. I've got a nice gmail checker and I have a shocking memory so i have a pop up calendar reminder thing too, both of which integrate really nicely.

I use a mac for work and I use safari from time to time with that but I have FF installed on it too and use that most of the time.

FF at the moment but I've been using IE7 and that's looking pretty good. The last Opera beta I tried caused me some serious problems but I have used it in the past.

I personally like firefox but if you are a developer you may consider both platforms firefox and IE when you're building Web sites.

I use Firefox but I test my sites on IE once i get them working in Firefox.

I use plug-ins for Firefox which ensure my HTML is all WC3 compliant, which is one thing Firefox will have over IE. That said, most people reading the site use IE and so I have to accept that it is better that it works for the majority than for me.

IE7 has tabbed browsing as well now (at last) and theres a feature that shows you thumbnails of all your open tabs, which is nice.

I've used both IE and FF but finally stuck with FF as you all know its speciality.
