Best Browser

[mckill2009]

What's the best and fastest browser there is?, mine I use Chrome and Second Firefox...

 

[Vengeancekael]

Definitely Chrome and Firefox.
As far as Safari goes, I can't really say anything since the mac version most likely is faster than the one they've made for windows.

 

[SA Dashie]

I've found Fire Fox to work best for me and suits my needs more.
I've also tried Opera on my computer.. and.. It just doesn't seem to converge with me. :|

 

[takakenji]

netscape

 

[Ironside]

Firefox of course.

 

[Sky Green]

Opera, it's pretty useful. It remembers the sites you were on, it has a lot of useful apps like looptube. It blocks pop-ups, and that's why I use it...

 

[Geries]

Internet Explorer of course you silly head!

I hope you didn't think I am serious.. Nightly! Err.. I mean.. Mozilla!

 

[FRENGERS]

Rockmelt
Where is Rockmelt?? There are no rockmelt there :/ :/

 

[mckill2009]

yeah! Chrome!!, its fast!...but I've got a problem with it, once I browse a page and scroll down with the wheel of my mouse it automatically scolls up, which is pretty annoying, that's why I switched sometimes to Firefox...

btw, IE sucks!

 

[kari0003]

Who added Internet Explorer to this poll?

I use chrome from a while, and i got used to my custom skin and chrome stuff so i hardly try other ones...

 

[Geries]

Come on Mozillaers.. Damn Chrome almost have twice votes. :/

 

[mckill2009]

Who added Internet Explorer to this poll?

coz I used that for the past 6 years before I use Chrome ...

 

[Chaosy]

chrome

 

[rcshaggy]

Firefox user here as well, but my brother told me to use Chrome as well.

 

[Skycraft]

the best browser is the one i'm using which is Google Silver

 

[Lambdadelta]

Chrome!

 

[moyackx]

I use firefox because it has lovely plugins that blocks ads. I do hate ads. An yes, it runs faster thanks to that.

 

[Magtheridon96]

Oh you.


http://v8.googlecode.com/svn/data/benchmarks/v5/run.html

Do a benchmark, then say which is the fastest.

I prefer Opera.
I can close the window and when I open it back, I can get back to doing whatever I was doing.

I use Firefox too for some things because the above feature is not something you'd want when you're... :3

 

[Ironside]

Well, I tried IE, Firefox and Chrome.

IE was around 2000,
Firefox was around 6500,
Chrome was around 9500.

 

[FRENGERS]

Rockmelt pleasee....
Hauu~

 

[Crazed_seal2]

20123 for Chrome.
4449 for IE.
I have a clear winner

 

[Ironside]

Guys, good game, well played.

Internet Troller Explorer is faster than Internet Explorer:
Umad Microsoft?

 

[The Reborn Devil]

Pffft, clearly Lynx beats them all.

Btw, that benchmark doesn't cover everything. For example, Firefox gets better performance than Chrome when dealing with the HTML5 Element 'Canvas' in certain scenarios. Sadly I do not have the screenshot any more, but I tested GhostWolf's tile shit and got 200FPS with Firefox while Chrome got a mere 50. That is an example of Firefox beating Chrome in performance.

I also prefer Firefox due to the addons and general feel of it. Chrome also tends to get slow after a while.

I prefer Opera.
I can close the window and when I open it back, I can get back to doing whatever I was doing.

Same with Firefox.

 

[Mgeterno11]

Firefox is the best. IE is too slow and crashes. Chrome is good, too, but Firefox seems safer and familiar for me. Althoug i use Chrome, too. (I have not used IE8 since 2010 July.)

 

[Geries]

A bit offtopicing on an offtopic thread: Is there a way to remove( not by deleting windows and formatting C etc. Thanks I don't need such ideas ) IE for forever? I want to get rid of such scum

 

[Ironside]

Yes, Control Panel > Programs and Features > Turn windows features on or off > Uncheck Internet Explorer

 

[Magtheridon96]

@FRENGERS:

Just by integrating Facebook into your browser, you're asking for a slower experience while browsing the web :/

 

[mckill2009]

Firefox is gaining and IDK about those browser benchmarks...The thing I like most of Chrome is you can type directly from the address bar and it just pop down, kinda good for lazy people like me ...

 

[sephiroth1234]

Rockmelt
Where is Rockmelt?? There are no rockmelt there :/ :/

It's because Rockmelt is under Google Chrome. It's just a customization of Google Chrome. Got it.

 

[Nuclear]

Could not test IE because it spammed about sript slowing down. All benchmarks were ran without extensions or such.

 

[Dr Super Good]

For Windows it is Internet Explorer because Microsoft built it partly into the opperating system. It performs well and uses few system resources compared to FireFox.

For Unix systems it is FireFox. Built by open source people for open source people.

Mac is obviously their very own browser.

Chrome makes a good alternative as it is reasonably optimized although this comes at the cost of some stability and it also is used to support Google's advertising system.

 

[moyackx]

I make firefox faster by using Ad Block plus plugin, it loads less shit and I'm happy

 

[Sky Green]

Well, opera also blocks pop-ups

 

[Panda]

Chrome works for me. Works great.

 

[Edhel-dur]

Firefox, you can actually make it look good. Also it performs well, has good add-ons, and even if IE uses less resources than FF, FF is much more customizable. And that's what I care about.

 

[The Reborn Devil]

Well, opera also blocks pop-ups

And so does every other browser except for IE.

 

[Pharaoh_]

I never had issues with Chrome, it's really fast as a browser and I like it that it's minimal.

 

[Geries]

Yes, Control Panel > Programs and Features > Turn windows features on or off > Uncheck Internet Explorer

It was way toooooooo easy...

 

[Da Fist]

IE! Oh wait. I thought we are voting for the worst ( or is it??? )

I vote for Chrome for flexible settings and I can google using the link bar ( which is very slow on other browsers *fireCOUGHfox* ). Also, very stable. Chrome never crashed on me ( except for that one time I was spamming THW tabs, but that is another story).

So, in conclusion
1st- Chrome
2nd- Firefox
3rd- Opera
4th- Safari
5th- IE

 

[Debesh]

Chrome is best browser. Only heretics and/or heathens say otherwise.

 

[EloTheMan]

Just like many others here: 1. Chrome 2. Firefox

I use Chrome primarily since it is very user friendly when it comes to fast browsing and searching the internet. Also the built-in addons are great so I won't have to download anything in particular. The downside is that it takes a lot of RAM, also there is a slight chance that it wont work with special applications (the 3D Model Viewer for example).

Firefox is my second choice, it performs very well but you simply miss the functions in Chrome to much.

Can anyone please tell me how to delete Internet Explorer? After I had chrome, there was no going back

This.

I highly suggest not deleting Internet Explorer, so you can have backgrounds like this:

[best_player_88]

This.

thanks
Edit: oh wait u actually answered for this allready? silly me XD

 

[gorillabull]

chrome because it has incognito mode

 

[kari0003]

^and others dont? -.-'

By the way I changed to Fireforx a day ago, because chrome became real unstable and it often didnt load the pages. So i changed to fireforks and installed the Adblocker you suggested, and now I enjoy the Advertfree browsing. Its real cool you should try.

 

[robot-dude]

I've known Chrome to cause lag and crash on certain low spec laptops. Whilst firefox doesn't cause any errors.


FireFox
Internet Explorer
Opera
Chrome
Safari

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

CHROME.

 

[moyackx]

CHROME.

So... you're telling me I'm a geek?? Fuck, how you knew it???
