As Chrome overtook Firefox last week as No 2 browser I reinstalled it and gave it a real good try, but there are a few important things it still cannot do (like executing php scripts within a tab) so I reverted to my trusty Firefox.


I was just wondering what the spread of browser usage is like amongst the members  :cool:

I'm still using IE 8.0.....
And I'm not in a rush to update to IE 9, I figure others can iron out the bugs...... :lol:
Have tried Firefox and Google Chrome but really can't see the point in changing to either one of them permanently as Internet Explorer does what I want and at the end of the day it's just one less program I need to install after reformatting my pooter.

I voted for Opera, although I typically run two browsers at the time: Opera and Chrome.
By the way  Comodo Dragon browser seems to me to work quite fast.

I use Mozilla Firefox on my PC (Win XP), but Google Chrome on my work PC (Win 7), becuase Firefox keeps freezing on W7. Don't know why.. I just know that when that happens, I have to "end" the plugin-container.exe to quit the Firefox and then restart it again.
