I've used Firefox, but for whatever reason it started running super slow on me even after I uninstalled and reinstalled. Then I moved on to Opera, but
there's a few things I don't like about it.
What other browser's out there would you recommend? I'd be fine with just continuing to use Opera, but I'm itching to try something new...

Sam, usually when Firefox starts acting up, it's the result of a bad profile rather than a bad installation. Here are some links you can look through.
Your old profile will contain files, such as bookmarks, that you may like to restore. Keep in mind that one of the old files might be contributing to your slowness, though. I generally use the import function to get my old bookmarks into my new profile, then set up the rest from scratch. EDIT: Safari is now available for Windows.

Opera is my main man. I really like it.

Well, if you want a standards-compliant browser, use Firefox/Opera/Safari. IE7 is now much better as well. Do NOT use IE6 or below. They should be
banned from the web.
Personally I use Firefox because of the gigantic developer network and an add-on for anything you can think of. Plus, the open source feel just makes it feel more 'pure'. "He loves it!" - Brian Anderson on Braun's Cardinal-Killer home run. |
