Which browser you use and why? also give your thoughts on other browsers.
  1. Internet Explorer(6, 7, 8).
  2. Mozilla Firefox(3.5)
  3. Google Chrome
  4. Safari
  5. Opera
I use Internet explore 8 and google chrome. Both display pages quicker than others.

Opera is probably the best, having most features.
FireFox is overrated and mediocre.
Safari 4 isn't quite good, lacks functions, but is blazing fast, simply beats all other browsers when it comes down to speed.
Chrome is mediocre and contains spyware by default.
Internet Explorer is only good when you use IE7 with the IE7Pro plugin.

Personally I use IE7Pro for safety and Safari 4 for regular browsing.

I already posted it once in a topic somewhere around here, with evidence and all. Chrome connects to unknown servers and sends encrypted strings to them as soon as you start browsing. So it's technically spyware released by Google, you wouldn't expect that wouldn't you?

Opera is extremely fast but lacks the ability to (effectively) block adds. It blocks simple images but is unable to block java (unless you install some type of addon which quite frankly, sucks hairy monkey balls [and it doesn't even remove the frame]).

Mozilla Firefox dominates. IE8 is cheap, it's pretty fast but still sucks because it doesn't have decent addons at all. It's functionality remains the same. Opera's good for people that need some fast access and medium functionality (speed dial is INCREDIBLY handy!, Mozilla FF also has this feature in an addon). Think of Speed Dial, Mouse Gestures, Fast Tabbed Browsing, Anti-Phishing,...

Mozilla Firefox combines all qualities and functions of Opera, IE and Safari in one amazing browser. I could recommend a few addons if you'd like.

Adblock Plus
Adblock Plus Eelement Hiding Helper
All-in-one Gestures (if you're used to mouse gestures in Opera, works AMAZINGLY well and is a fast method of browsing)
Download Statusbar (replacement for the download window, works great and is handy)
Fission (progress bar like in Safari, looks pimp <3)
Speed dial
Tab Mix Plus (MUST HAVE. AWESOME ADDON FOR YOUR TABS)
United States English Dictionary (if your spelling isn't all that great)

Those are the ones that I'm currently using except for the dictionary. It was removed when I reformatted my laptop and I've been too lazy to re-download it. XD Have fun!

IE 8.. can anyone tell me how to use accelerators..
there is no specific way to use accelerators as they all do something different

but for the most part highlight the info you wish to work with, search for, ect. and click the blue button that appears

its good for searching and translating i dont really use them though

if u need more info just let me know and i'll see what i can come up with
