    Use FF at home whenever possible.

    Work actually forces us to use IE to access the intranet on here

    Opera, always opera! (I prefer IE7 to FF too)

    You can say that opera does things differently just for the sake of it, but usually you'll find that opera was the first to do it anyway.

    IE at work, IE and FF at home, although FF is usually slower, so am using IE more at home as well.

    I use FF mostly, although I used to use Avant all the time. I refused to upgrade to IE7 for a long time because i deeply resent Microsoft's decision to remove the file, edit, etc. menus by default.

    Same.

    Though I've had the #1 bug before... not that often though - ended up typing it in word and copy and pasting to google!!

    Firefox2 at home IE if have to, its sometimes buggy and older versions were crazy memory leaks.

    FF1.5 at work for browsing and Ie7 for the Intranet.

    What did we do before tabbed browsing?? I tried opera for windows a while back and hated it, butI guess if you get used to teh mouse gestures it should be really slick.

    We used more than one window... which is pretty much the same thing.

    I've used just about everything. My PCs started with IE (5 years ago?), then Opera, then Netscape, then finally Firefox. I really like it and changed my mac from Safari to Firefox. My one gripe is that it can really bog down easily on my PoweBook.
