What Web Browser Do You Use ?

There are many web browser's around the net today and I was wondering what web browser you use and if it has anything to do with how well it works with the forum, please let me know your views on your specific browser and if it works well with the forum.

I for one use Safari for the forum but use Firefox for everythingelse because of the fact i cannot get Firefox to spell check automatically.

Also was wondering if there could be a poll for this topic.

I use Safari.  

Anything less than Internet Explorer 7 is no longer supported by this forum.  In other words, if something doesn't work correctly on that browser, we won't be spending any time attempting to support it.

Firefox and Chrome and IE7+ are all supported by the forum as well as Safari and Opera, but most of the major testing and features are first implemented for Safari browsers. An example is the shadowing under the avatars.

I won't add a poll because I've actually got the cold hard figures.

In terms of the last month on this forum

Internet Explorer 40% (85% of which are IE7 or IE8)
Firefox 35%
Chrome 11%
Safari 10%
Opera 2%

The rest, PS3, PSP and Opera Mini make up the rest.

It's interesting because not so long ago - approximately 65% of people used internet explorer.

Good to see it changing - although I am still surprised so many people seem to use Firefox (which I used to love).  For me personally Safari wins hands down.

Funny because I had just posted how I have been using safari for this site but just now I had a freak error, therefore I uninstalled it and at this very moment I am using the forum via Opera.

So far in the few minutes I have used it, it has been lightning fast because of this tweak called turbo charge if you turn this tweak on in opera it turns down the resolution of pictures quality etc, most web browsers load up when a 100% of data is downloaded on the page but with this tweak turned on it only waits for 80% of the data making it much a quicker.

So I will not be re downloading Safari and will be uninstalling Firefox also basically now I recommend Opera, ha.

Thanks for the figures JD, sometimes i get all geeky and it interest's me.

On Firefox myself but been thinking about trying out Chrome for a while now

I tend to use Safari although will occasionally use Chrome.

Any other questions?

Well I have a few more yes, do you reckon a specific browser works better on a specific os system for example would Firefox work better on XP or VISTA ? 

Just kidding.

Pass.

Doesn't matter what OS it's run on, as long as it has the relevant resources on which to run on - i.e. RAM, Processor.

But wouldn't Safari ideally work better on a MAC ?

I use Firefox but I downloaded Safari not too long ago.

Might use that from now on.

Edit: Quite like this! Can now see some things I couldn't before too such as the shadowing under the avatars. Also seems that it does a spell check whilst typing which is pretty cool.

Sure, the Mac version would. But there's a decent Windows version, too, so there's really no difference.

Oh ok, thanks for clearing that up with me.

What browser do you use Res ?

Firefox. I can't get used to the look of Safari/Google Chrome. Too basic.

Safari. I like shadows.

Follow the link and move over the image to see how it would look on your browser and then click on Wear Personna if you want to use it.

I have now  .

Been using Safari for the past hour or so.

Only bad point is that the scrollbar seems to have a mind of its own.

Try out Opera, trust me it works just as good as Safari, also has a built in spell check and is quicker.

Currently using Opera. Sometimes use Safari too.

Firefox.

It has spell check for me The red line under misspelt words?

I like the LFC personas you can get and is pretty smooth. Had Safari but switched a while ago. Might switch back.

firefox i use ,i also got spell checker

tried chrome ages ago but didnt think much of it

nice one mate

Ditto.

Been using Firefox for a while now and I can't be bothered to move on to Safari.

Just got the new Firefox. 3.6.

Can't see any differences so far, though.
