Four months of continuing Chrome use and now I would never turn back to IE or FF - I am terrible for change and getting used to new things, it took me an eternity to change from XP to 7 although I am glad I skipped the Vista period by all accounts, Chrome is quick to get used to and you soon get to love its ease and functionality.

I've used Firefox for a long time, but I've been slowly turned to Chrome due to FF running stupidly slowly and I have no idea why. It also randomly freezes and then suddenly works again. I'm contemplating trying out IE again, due to a lack of trust in Google... even though I'll prob not survive with out my Gmail if I was to ever fully leave Google (impossible to do)

FireFox, and very occasionally Safari.

Main Gripe at FF was when they dropped the Google Toolbar, saying it was 'incompatible'.

It Isn't, it's just not there.

If you want it it is at

<http://www.google.co.uk/firefox?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-USfficial>

Fortunately I stuck it in my Bookmarks before upgrading, so I can still get to it.

After clearing all cookies, cache and what ever other private data FF had stored and updating it from FF11 to FF12 it feels more responsive, though not sure how long it'll take to bog down again.

I gave IE a bash again last night and it was blindingly fast. This was a surprise indeed as I've never had IE that responsive no matter what PC I'm using it on. Was their a stealth patch or something that I've not heard about or was it just a lucky fluke?

Petra, while the was not intentional strangely it did not look that out of place in there. I think its time for a coffee break me thinks.

Kryloch,

I have to agree, my very first reaction was to giggle, and then when I conjured it up the second time, giggle again.

Oh dear, I'm in a bad way.

FF for me. I don't like Google's attitude over Chrome, and for that matter, their attitude generally. I'm not using a browser product from them, 'cos I simply do not trust them.

we must be so closely related ibn terms of being picky...

so.. Firefox for me.. I didn't like the idea of Chrome asking me to sign over all my intellectual property rights on anything I type through Chrome. It doesn't suit me... my words are mine.

ta

but they re wrote them a while ago... I believe...

However.. in a recent hacking convention I believe Chrome was the hardest to crack for the pro's......FF and IE just folded and let the bad people in.

Why choose? Install all and get spoilt for choice!
Anyway I use IE and FF..one certainly cannot miss FF.

FF FTW! You can't beat FF with ABP installed. Makes the browsing experience oh so much better. Especially on YouTube.

FF and Iron. If iron had a menu bar I'd move over completely.
