Netscape by far. Layout, speed... everything. My vote lays with Netscape! :D

I've never tried netscape. I havent had any major problems with IE, but I tried Firefox and liked the tabbed browsing. :)
I will withhold a vote since it wouldnt be fair to vote against a program that I havent tried. :wink:

A lot of people hate IE but I for one don't have a problem with it. I tried netscape a while back and hated it. Hopefully IE will wake up and change some of its attributes to what people like such as the tabbed browsing, built in pop up control and other good things.

Yeah IE works fine for me, plus its virtually bug free. I have tried Mozilla but found that Flash and Shockwave would send the browser bananas and then take its sweet ass time to get the media shown up.

But yeah IE does the job for me

Netscape has tabbed browsing :D

I never had a problem with IE until a few days ago. Every time I followed a link it would open a window without a taskbar :x

I had Netscape sitting around, so I installed it and now I can't see myself going back.

If I find any hiccups I'll let y'all know :)

Has anyone tried Opera?
If not, don't it's crap! With some stupid Ad in the corner and the strangest layout, even IE beats it :shock:

I'm going with the idea that Netscape = Firefox, and that's where my vote lies.
