Internet Explorer 9 Arrives~

Internet Explorer 9 arrived with quite a bit of stir in the internet community. Probably not as much in the DC community. Which browsers do you guys use? I personally use Google Chrome. I've used Safari, Opera and Firefox and still went back to Chrome. But of course, it's everyone's personal preference of which browser they like the most.

Which Browsers do Comrades use?

    IE9 finally ready to jump off their old ships, just like from Firefox 2 to Firefox 3, that's the least I can confirm :D

      Yup, and at least it's an improvement, unlike IE8 -_-"

    Most of time, I stick with Opera on Windows and Mac OS X.

    Will give IE9 a try I guess... ^^

      Never hurts to try : ) Just remember that it doesn't work on XP.

    I use Firefox, so this update doesn't really interest me. It's not a matter of "Ew, Internet Explorer sucks!", rather I'm just used to using Firefox now.

      Same here, I don't really use IE, but I still have it because a bunch of programs relies on it, such as Steam...

        Steam relies on Internet Explorer? I never noticed.

          Well, not IE itself, but explorer, and if you delete IE, it takes out explorer also. And I had the honor of going through that bad experience...

    For me, it's a matter of loyalty and had-been-used-to why I stick to IE... So I guess it's sort of an obligation for me to try out IE9. But I do switch to chrome every now and then...

    Though I do use Firefox on my Mac. It's definitely much better than Safari, I must say.

    I just simply got used to Firefox. I tried Opera, IE and Chrome (sticked with it for a while) but I always switched back to Firefox.

    Maybe it was a matter of misfortune, but I installed Explorer 9 once because the blog of a plugin I use in my website said they fixed a bug there, so I got curious and installed it to check.
    It looked fine but now some of my site's functionality was gone and the new browser forced me to use compatibility mode all the time, so... It wasn't long before I uninstalled it (I guess Micro$oft is still not ready). Firefox 4 on the other hand turned out to be faster than Chrome and now takes the same window space as Chrome, so once again, Firefox is my choice! ^^

    By the way, the bug that was fixed in that plugin I use, happened because there was problem in the while loop in the Explorer's JavaScript engine... Who makes bugs like that? Why does explorer insist to stay the "Unfinished browser"?

    Firefox 4.0 all the way, the new sync function is a must for me since i use many computers and this way i have my history, markers and passwords sync in all computers and backed up in case anything happens

      But in case you want to sync between other browsers or you decide to stay with Firefox 3 for some reason, there's always Xmarks ^^

    I've always used IE, but I really have no strong opinion one way or another. Alot of my firends use chrome, and it seems to do the job alright as well.

    Somehow I seriously doubt all the advertising of IE9 is likely to get people to jump over to it--as far as I'm concerned, IE was NEVER a good browser, and I think a lot of people agree with me, judging by the poll results and the venomous comments I've heard from web designers. I think we're all FAR too scarred from past experiences with other versions of IE to want to touch any iteration with a 49 and a half foot pole.

    I currently use Safari, though I like Firefox too. Haven't tried Chrome yet, but I might give it a spin in the near future. IE, however, I've avoided like the plague since I got rid of my Windows 98 machine years ago, and would be glad to see it go the way of Netscape, Mosaic, and the dodo.

    *Doesn't work on windows XP* guess I'll stick with Firefox. Firefox is faster on Windows XP anyway. just another reason to hate Macrosoft. guess it will always be "that thing i used to download a good browser"
