Firefox is a safer, more standards-compliant browser.

Internet explorer is in always worse than FireFox. Minimal protection, no add-block, it doesn't ask you to remember passwords and doesn't have all those cool extensions (though I cannot seem to figure out how to use ChatZilla, karma for an explanation).

Actually, it's equal to Opera in safety and standard compliant.

Opera has more innovative and funner things. Mozilla copied Opera with tabs and the like.
Speed Dial on opera is an amazing feature, and I will not be surprised if Mozilla introduces it on their software. They are always one step behind tbh.

Firefox 2.0, I love how tweakable it is.  I used this guide:

http://www.tweakfactor.com/articles/twe … eak/4.html

and it is crazy fast now.  Btw, the qualifications for a fast computer on that page are: 1GHz or more processor and decent amount of RAM.

For Fast internet, you should only use it if you have Cable internet or better, which means everything else, including DSL is a considered slow internet qualifications on that page, there are also dial-up tweaks at the bottom of that page.

The only other browsers i've used are

Internet Explorer, which is amazingly slow and hard to use compared to Firefox, especially IE 7, selective history deleting ftw

AOL, which is somewhat slow, complicated to use, requires a password and obviously does not compete with any of the real browsers if it could even be considered a browser itself.

I used Safari on both of my friends Macs, which are both OS X, one is a Macbook and one is a desktop.  It was slow and very unusual (generally how Mac stuff is imo by looking at how everything else worked in OS X) so I installed and tweaked Firefox on both of them using the aforementioned guide.  It worked with Mac flawlessly and does everything that it would with Windows, including tabbed browsing and beating out the native OS browser like it did with IE 6/7, which makes me feel right at home even when using it on a Mac (except right-clicking is replaced with Ctrl + click).
