    Minefield is the name for all unstable ff builds, because it might explode like a minefield...

    You see, this is why you must use Chrome. Simple shit.

    I started using chrome a while ago and its just so nice compared to firefox. Like all the old annoying things in firefox that you got used to are just suddenly gone and its like a weight off your shoulders. I miss the firefox extensions and addons though :/

    The IT dudes at my company made me uninstall chrome. For some reason it kept phoning back to google so often that the company proxy server freaked out and said 'fuck it' and locked all my accounts... So ill keep using firefox and miss on all the fun i guess :(

    If you add IE, then the whole world's population is doomed.

    Chrome is a pretty cool browser, eh is full of exploits and doesn't afraid of giving unauthorized access.

    Firefox is by far the superior browser. There hasn't been crashy "stable" releases since 2.x.

    I used chrome for about a month. It is faster, without a doubt. But it also does stupid things like showing broken image links for broken image links, or did at least. Firefox just simply doesn't show them, which is far better. Firefox has a tonne more plugins, looks better, can be tuned to go faster than chrome if you know how and is all in all, better.

    We don't talk about Safari. I know some people swear by Opera, but I've only used opera mini on my phone, so I wouldn't know about that. But speaking from heavily using both firefox and chrome, as well as IE 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8. Firefox 3.x is the most stable, most moddable and best looking browser. With a bit of tuning, you can get close to, if not faster than the speeds of chrome.

    I just hope they don't fuck up 4.x trying to be smartasses and making it more like chrome.

    I only use firefox for the addons. I tried chrome but I thought it was a piece of crap to be honest. :p
    I went on a browser spree when I started messing with linux but firefox is made of win. Opera is pretty cool though it would be better with firefox addons.

    adblock plus, better privacy, flashblock, noscript, keyscrambler, pdf download, downthemall, download helper, and cryptfire. Those are the addons I use. I was thinking about encrypting this entire post just to be annoying but I won't.^^

    I swear on Opera since 2003. Wasn't always the fastest browser, but has all the neat shit anybody might need right on board. mousegestures, downloadmanager, irc, ... . the only thing where firefox beats every other browser is the noscript-plugin. there simbly isn't anything out like that for other browsers.
