Firefox VS IE (but we all know firefox owns)

[hydrojakep]

Firefox owns your soul for these reasons.
Tabbed windows
No crashes
The bookmarks toolbar folder
And it has a fox.

Opera's icons are waay too big. Opera sucks.

The only time firefox crashed for me was when I went to compfused.com. That sucked. You also need to get plugins for internet media if you use firefox.

But it really does kick ass. IE can't even compare. If you dislike firefox then you've never used it or you are just simply retarded.

You can make the buttons smaller. The newest one is very compact. I love the look and everything of Opera more than both FF and IE.

The only problems with Opera (at least this version/build) is that it sometimes crashes. But that's not a big deal, since I can load up that last session with ease. Also, some javascript actions don't work and some sites (like gmail) don't support it. Again, not too big of a deal since I know which sites act up, and I just use IE for them.

Firefox > IE

[Kenzya]

Firefox wins me over hands down.

The only problem I have with firefox is the fact that quicktime likes to crash it, anyone know of any fixes?

[Moogy]

Quicktime + Firefox has never been a problem for me.

Maybe you should update it?

[LEGO]

Yeah, quicktime hasn't been giving me problems.

I LOVE FIREFOX! Opera is very cool, too. I really don't like IE much at all, plus the fact that IE doesn't work on my computer.. it was exploited. Got a virus just opening it earlier.

Firefox is my browser of choice, though I wish it didn't use GTK, and I wish that it didn't "integrate with Gnome". What about users of other environments? I use KDE, but won't use Konqueror until the browser thing is seperated from the file manager. Konqueror doesn't feel as polished, either (though the use of QT widgets makes it look much sexier, same with Opera). GTK-QT kinda solves these problems, but meh. I also wish Firefox didn't have such a heavy UI engine. Chrome seems to be FAT.

Oh well. It's still better than IE.

EDIT: Anyone who prefers one browser over another simply because of some asinine online game is a fool.

The tabs of Firefox win it for me. I <3 them.

FFR the game doesn't always work right in FF though. Sometimes steps just don't load. So, I use IE when playing FFR.

I have a rant about the issues with IE. Does anybody here know XHTML and CSS? IE is fucktardingly stupid.

IE made my site a living hell to code. NOTHING was working - and I still can't get it to work right.

I would presume, right now, that XHTML websites using CSS layout with a menubar at the right side and which use the maximum width of the browser window, are using very ugly hacks to make it work with IE. EVERYTHING I try works in firefox. NOTHING I try works in IE. As such, my website is currently broken in IE. I like my layout and I will not ruin it because of Microsoft.

If you use IE as your primary browser you are holding back the web, you fuckwads. Go educate yourselves about web standards, proprietary CSS codes that force people to think that other browsers are "broken" when the effects do not work in them, security exploits, and the lack of alpha-level opacity support in PNGs. This is what IE is doing to the web. STOP IT, USE FIREFOX AND MAKE MY LIFE EASIER DAMMIT.

Opera

OPERA.

Though, I will give Firefox a test-run to verify which is better.

Chrissi is absolutely correct.
