Hi Jcb

Sorry for the slow reply,

To be honest if i was you i would go for Firefox, it is the easiest to use client and has got alot of add-ons etc. I have always used it and always will, i am sure they will be plenty of people which will back me up on this also

Hope that helps.

FireFox fast? Really? I cant stand how slow it is, i'm not an IE fan, but on my computer(s) - IE is alot faster than FireFox. Now, Opera. Theres a browser!

yep, I use Opera 9.2 - widgets, syles. A very customizable browser.
Its roghly the same speed as IE&, and it still has tabbed browsing, AND Speed-Dial, which I love

Firefox is much better.
With IE, you'd probably crash your computer when using it... That's why people call it Internet Exploder *kaboom*(I'm using IE on my dad's laptop. It really sucks)

IE = Spyware, Spyware = DEATH (BSOD(Crash))

Firefox also loads faster and it's customizable, unlike IE... (I don't know of any IE plugins)

Default Firefox sucks

Mozilla FireFox, in my opinion sucks. Yea, I have installed on my OS, but only as a Web Design compliance tool. Other than that, I LOVE MY OPERA.

Firefox kicks arse, much better than IE6/7 and I've seen just about every browser ever made as I'm a web developer and have to do browser testing. In FF everything just seems to work, whereas IE you have to have work arounds for css, html etc

Firefox is much faster than Internet explorer but it is a resource hog! soemtimes when i have 20+ tabs open firefox is pulling over 450Mb of my memory!

but it has great features so its worth it , but if you have it and are a heavy internet user i would have at least 512Mb of ram (0.50GB)

I go between opera, ie7, and ff. I don't normally have 20+ tabs open, so I wouldn't know about that. I would think the same is true for ie7 and opera as well. I don't know, so I can't say this is true. Why would any one have 20+ tabs open?
