Wouldn't this be in technology discussion

And you can try Google Chrome, Internet Explorer 8, Safari... just to name a few.

Those as well as Opera are basically the main ones I think.

opera shouldn't be used. Look at the sig of one the forum members (can't think of his name)

Yes I know as a company they're a bit *****ish but as a browser, it's pretty OK.

I started using opera, but when I came to reading my hotmail e-mail it was really crap.

Firefox is the best in terms of features and very secure, it also handles websites very well.

Google Chrome seems the safest browser, it's the least easy to hack however they have on occasions had to rush out security patches due to security flaws. However if you want security, Google Chrome is best and it's also the fastest in terms of booting up and loading web pages.

And who cares about the rest.

I think chrome, its the only browser that didnt get taken down in the hacking contest (have pwn2own in my head, but dont think it was that)

Safari as normal was first to go - much in the same way the mac is always first to go in the pwn2owns - despite apples claims of uber securety

In most cases your generally fine in anything, most attack code is generally still only effective against ie so firefox, safari, opera and chrome are all pretty safe.

I like I.E and I really don't like Firefox because people say it's amazing n stuff but I find it really annoying, it comes with lag and realllly annoying updates, plus when you're downloading something on Firefox it's so complicated and stupid, where as I.E it's fast and easy.
