ie firefox Google Chrome
And why?
I see where Firefox 6 is coming our tomorrow. I have been using Firefox for about 3-4 years and had been pleased until this last version (5). I hear good things about Chrome, but haven't been willing to make the switch.

I just downloaded chrome two weeks ago. I'm still in a testing phase and go back and forth between chrome and IE. I do have chrome currently set as my default browser. Chrome seems faster to me and I like the simplicity of it.

I like Chrome, but I'm back to IE since going to windows 7. I've had issues with Chrome and 7. I downloaded Chrome because I had the opposite issue, I found the IE and windows 7 combination to be buggy.

I had IE and Windows Vista issues, so I was using Firefox and liked it. Now that we upgraded to Windows 7 I have been using Chrome with no issues. But the hubs still prefers IE.

I downloaded Chrome because I had the opposite issue, I found the IE and windows 7 combination to be buggy. I think IE 9 and Windows 7 is buggy. I went back to IE 8 here at work (Win 7). I was using Firefox, but like DD didn't like the new version. Chrome reminds me of firefox and IE 9 tried to be like Chrome, but it just wasn't the same.

I installed Google Chrome on my laptop last night and tried it out a little bit. So far I like it. Setup was very easy and it quickly imported my favorites and quick links from IE. Customizing the settings was easy too. I'm looking forward to see how well it works on sites that use add-ons like Flash Player, Java, etc.

I love the add ons you can get for Chrome™. There is even one that will open a Internet Explorer tab if you find a page that only works with IE.

Where I am supposed to be

I have been using Google Chrome at home for a while and I really like its simplicity and the add-ons. Much better than work where we still use IE-6 (although IT has pushed out Firefox to us now which makes searching for information much easier.

Peepers, Google Chrome has what is called incognito mode that lets you surf websites without it being recorded in your browser history. It also deletes any "Cookies" you might pick up at the end of the browser session. I have no personal knowledge of how this works but am assuming that this might be a useful feature for you based on your question....
