Flock/Firefox has locked up on me for the last time... I finally decided to quit using it and try out Opera 10.62. So far, I'm very happy with it, if you guys want updates on this let me know. Otherwise, sit back, answer the poll, and just enjoy the thread. (I also hope a similar topic like this hasn't been made already). |

I still use Firefox... though it's starting to irritate me by crashing constantly. <_< |

Chrome. EDIT: Why is IE even a vote option? Joke response? |

At one point around 50% of people still used IE, I think that number has been declining since though. Besides, it is a funny option. |

One of my professors used it, but I'm not sure if he still does. Oh yeah, I think my cousin uses it, but he's not much of a computer nerd/user and his grandfather uses IE 6. I think IE 8 has been better than others, but still though, I don't think it's as good as the other ones out now. |

IE? It's almost like it was the most commonly used browser or something. Now Safari shouldn't be up there. What kind of mug buys an apple? |

Right, and since most people use it it must be the best, right? |

I didn't say that. I simply pointed out that it's the most common browser, and thus by implication should probably be on the poll. |

From the statistics I've found, Firefox is the most popular/most used browser now. No wonder it sucks now... Everyone is using it... |

What statistics have you been looking at, and was the guy who produced them drunk? IE still has way more. And that's since the EU forced Microsoft to give all their European users the frikin choice. |

Hmm... I got my stats from here. But you have a pie-chart, you win. |

SoG would have to give him his eyes back. Pie charts are easier to turn braille-readable, that's why he accepted your data. |
