    I don't use Firefox but IE because I think Firefox is very slow at loading images from websites, even the small ones. Is this just me? and are there anything I can do to make it load images as fast as IE?

    Opera is the fastest for me, Fire Fox was too laggy and jumpy.

    I.E....... No comment

    Everything seems fine with my firefox. Only slight problem (as sum1 else said) is that it takes that extra second or two to load a webpage. I like it though.

    FF only loads slower when I launch the exe..that's it. It loads pages faster then IE for me.

    Opera takes a little learning to use, and Firefox is essentially the same as IE, but better, sick of the idiots that call it "Fartfox" and other things... because they are love buddies with Microsoft..

    anyway, go with Firefox.

    No it's actually much faster than IE. You've heard how good firefox is so your best bet is to go with it :)
