^^^ Every browser has pros and cons. Even I am a "Macboy" will not "LOVE" Safari. Every browser IMO is missing something other browser has.

^^It surely does open http://hk.yahoo.com/

I use Opera but it lacks a major featuire all its life: The anility to queue downloads like "Max no of active downloads" other DM provides. I have no idea why the devs havent work on this ,its not as if it is an exotic feature. Its damn essential and its been missing for years............

^that is because of browser sniffing
1. right click > edit site pref > network tab > change 'identify as opera' TO 'mask as firefox'
THEN select cookies tab > select cookie > click delete .

THEN Reload

it opens then

Opera for forums and stuff and heavy browsing. Very bandwidth friendly for those having slow connections like me.

Firefox. Slower but very good with blogging stuff. Great spellchecker. Wordpress+Firefox is damn good a combination.

Can the mods add Google Chrome on to the list of options on the poll? It's quite an interesting browser.

i use different browsers for different purposes

Firefox especially when to bock ads and flash files,scripts an when to customised browsing

Opera - i like the command buttons and image style-cached images and noimage options....especiallly love for its speed

IE-use for banking or for secured browsing

In my opinion FF is an near all rounder.....

Fire Fox is the best browser and its security is the toughest with noScript add-on.
