Firefox... Something I've ALWAYS used on this site... Though Opera is even faster, I'm used to Firefox's style... Opera makes me feel like "If I touch something, it will break." >_>...
But I've tried to take care to make this cross-browser, albeit Macs won't loads this site correctly. I'm hoping the new skin will fix that...

Well using IE had the main page take about a minute and a half to load but FF cut that down to 35 seconds.......so yeah....I also have Fasterfox which is steroids fro Firefox so I'm blazing incredibly quick. But if Opera is faster......

I didn't like how Fasterfox worked... I'm fine with FF as it 'tis.

Holy vodka Opera is even faster! Where'd all these other browsers pop up from? I need to pay more attention.

COMPUTER NERD ALERT!!
Well, Omni... The only three real Windows browsers that stand out at the moment are IE, Firefox, and Opera. Many other browsers run off of Trident (IE) rendering engine, and some off of Gecko (Firefox). Opera is the only exception where it's dead alone.
IE is actually at times, FASTER than Firefox. But for some sites with heavy loads, Firefox will be faster. Opera is the fastest and most W3C standard compliant (standard for ALL computer browsers, be it Mac, Windows, or Linux). Note that this applies ONLY to Windows.
Mac is a whole 'nother story... Internet Explorer is the underdog, being discontinued... Safari is the main one, being that it runs fast and is dead W3C standard compliant. Firefox is most likely the second most used, from what I remember... And Camino is another Gecko browser by Mozilla (Firefox makers) that is for Mac. Other browsers include Shiira, iCab, and OmniWeb (don't just use it just 'cuz part of your name's in it. >_>).
I don't use Linux much, but I believe Mozilla Firefox and Konqueror (the latter of which Safari on Mac is based off of) are the most commonly used browsers.
