Opera. It's not fast but its usability owns all the other browsers. Mouse gestures (u dont need ANY buttons), working tabbed browsing (FF is weird), maximium configurability. Simply a browser for power surfers, but not for the 399$ PC people out there. Ah yeah, its safe and supports PNG, f*ck IE, webdesigners should hate IE.

I don't want a rich multimedia web experience!  I use IE only when I have to (work, a few corp. sites that still require it).  I've used opera in the past, but it's been a while.  At the time, it was a little quirky and slow, but still better than IE.  Greasemonkey and the array of extensions brought me over to the FF camp.

I'm gonna disagree with lukie and say that the $399 PC folks are exactly the folks that need a different browser, as these are typically the folks that need any help they can get protecting their boxen.  IE, quite simply, should not be a first-choice browser for anyone.

No OS X love either....where's Safari?

I’m lazy, IE came with the computer, changing it to something else would require valuable BF2 time.

I used to like opera for it's many options and tabbed browsing, but I switched to Firefox because it's a little bit easier to use and I'm just really, REALLY lazy.

I am a fan of Avant Browser, and i think that you should all give it a go.

Has mouse gestures like Opera so you can open, close, go back, forward, refresh etc.. with a click and a move.

Doesnt open up more tabs in the windows taskbar, but opens up tabs within the program itself. I also find it much better at blocking popups than other browsers.

It does use IE technology though, so it will display web pages differently than Firefox.

I use IE 6 usually but sometimes I use Firefox.  You're really dumb if you use IE 7, it's not official yet so it's unsupported for a lot of things.
