Internet Explorer 9

[Venti Quattro]

It's out now. Really looking nice, fast and compatible. I hate the tabs on the side of the address bar but overall it's great.

[Muser]

It's not bad, still prefer Chrome though.

[lefty]

It's very nice

Not as good as Firefox, but it's getting there.

As OP said, the fact that the tabs are on the side of the address bars kinda sucks

I like the fact that you can pin your favorite websites (windows 7)

What happened?

Have so many security holes been plugged that they had to make a new browser again?

[Jt.ONE]

never liked or trusted IE.

chrome > ff > safari > ie > opera

[lefty]

Safari sucks on Windows 7

What happened?

Have so many security holes been plugged that they had to make a new browser again?In case you hadn't noticed, every browser and just about every plug in had an update in the past week or so. That's because this week there is a security challenge where hackers try to, well, hack those programs for a $10,000 prize.

Firefox is about add-ons and features, not pure speed.

I mean, do you need your browser to be .25 seconds quicker at loading a page?

I meant firefox became sluggish after I used it for 4 years, and I switched to Chrome about a year ago, and for me there is a noticeable difference in start up time and loading pages. Plus I can sync it to my google account and have all my bookmarks anywhere.

[cheguevara]

Been using 9 Beta for 1 year now. Sucks!!! IE still sucks! unbelievable these ppl can put out shitty browser after shitty browser.

yeah, it's fast, but what good is that if it works only with 75% of the websites

:pctoss

Meh. I hardly ever notice any serious slowdown with FF. Yes, Chrome is faster, but FF is still pretty insanely fast compared to what I used to use for a browser. For me, it's the difference between near-instantaneous and somewhat close to instantaneous.

for me it was like going from IE to FF.

[Venti Quattro]

Chrome is just pure speed but it's still GARBAGE. Poor customization, poor handling, poor interface.

[CuckingFunt]

I definitely noticed a speed difference when I was using Chrome. The add-ons and the ability to save sessions eventually brought me back to Firefox, though. If Chrome ever picks up the few features I use on Firefox, I'd switch in a heartbeat.

[DarkReign]

Recently switched to FF and I will be hard-pressed to ever switch again. Using 4.0 Beta.

[Venti Quattro]

Opera is better than Chrome as an alternative to Firefox tbqh fwiw imo as per the usual

Ad Block Plus is now available for Chrome, that is a huge plus. There are session saver plugins too. I haven't run across anything I used in FF that isn't available for Chrome.

[balli]

I prefer FF over Chrome because the name and logo are cooler. :tu

Opera is really nice; fast enough for me, nice UI, shortcuts options, etc...

I also like the Bitorrent integration - although I prefer to use a separate torrent client.

Seriously, though. IE sucks, has sucked for a long time and will continue to suck for a long time. FF and Chrome are infinitely better.

I've had the same problem. It became such a hassle, that I actually started using Safari as my backup, which is nowhere near as fast on my dual core desktop than it is on my old ass iBook, which says tons about the Windows version of it. FF became very bogged down and bloated with the extensions and what not, which is the exact opposite of what it was supposed to be in the beginning.

I cleared out most of my extensions, but it didn't help.

[leemajors]

I don't really care for Safari, but it's must use at work.
