Firefox, Chrome or other?

[lschmidt]

FF for everything. Don't trust Chrome. At all. 90% of Google's incomes is from selling advertising (pulling #'s out of my ass here) - not the kind of company I want to give an awful lot of information about myself to (even Microsoft is better in that regard since its primary revenue stream is software and SAAS more than advertising).

So, what exactly are you worried about? Even if google steals all your "information" ?

LOL ^, great image!

Speaking of IE, has anyone found the new one to be good?

Gmail Contacts is unusable in IE9, literally the Contacts form is broken. Crap.

I use SW Iron (Chrome minus tracking) - it's fast and allegedly safe.

FF6 because it's a massive improvement on all that went before.

^^ this (SRWare Iron is the name, whatever)

for everyone who is reluctant to use chrome because of google's prying eyes (everyone here, i guess?), just use Iron. You'll be safe.

Internet Explorer 9, you'll be shocked how good it is.

Presumably you're not a gmail user?

I am currently using FF in my PC and Chrome in my laptop. Can't get the Chrome running right in my PC. Both browser rocks!

I am indeed, are you suggesting Gmail doesn't work in IE9?

The mail part works fine but the Contacts page does not. Could you let me know if it works for you please?

Usually firefox as it is the fastest,lightest and my favourite

 

[linkpro]

Firefox seems to be lagging nowadays. Not sure if it is just me or several others.

Opera ftw!

People need to try out Opera. It has a good potential of being one of the worlds best.

I saved it from someone who posted it on here earlier in a similar thread, but thanks.

You do realize it's people who run Google, and people who have access to its data. It's enough that Google knows that I'm searching for "anal bead penetration" - Chrome adds another potential leak as it looks at which anal masturbation websites I'm actually browsing through.

Not that I actually look for that kind of stuff - the above that was purely a hypothetical example that I pulled out of my ass.

I mean out of my, er, head.

[frenchboy]

I don't use chrome or gmail cause I'm scared google's gonna spy on my websites lol

Rockmelt (Chrome + Social)

 

[lincolndsp]

tried both, FF wins, chrome inferior to FF

 

[RBGlobalMedia]

I use both.. Chrome for everyday browsing, and fun, Firefox for work, and iMacros of course..

Here's a little something:

 

[slickymedia]

I usually use FF on my PC but thinking of switching to Chrome

 

[iSynergy Media]

Firefox is the best browser ever and will be.
IE too slow, and the constant updates will even make it slower.
Google's chrome near the competition as far as speed and add ons are concerned but not reliable and easily crashed.
Safari and Opera need a lot of catching up to do.

I've never even HEARD of anyone being able to purposefully crash Chrome on a decent computer... Not to mention that it's at least TWICE as fast as firefox in practical usage.
