Have you checked the new look Opera 9.2. I must say, from my passion for take-a-look at new software I started using Opera. It is a real surprise for me. Other than being a fast and secure browser (loads fast too), it has an email client also.
I have it loaded on my computer for testing when i build websites but hardly ever use it for anything else.  i think i have 9.02 on my computer.

but i must say, i don't think i will ever change from firefox.  I just love the huge amount of extras you can get for it.
I'm also an Opera user Smile
Had it, but deleted it due to it not being used frequently enough.FF is my boy

oooooook, thats like wroooong!

60.8% of web browsers are still a form of IE.
28.8% are Firefox
2.4% are Mozilla Browsers
0.3% Netscape
1.4% Opera (which is down .2% of last month)

and then the spare 6.3% is other browsers such as safari and various linux ones.

it is probably down because of the new IE and firefox just coming out.

I agree! You can get a ton of extras, themes, and they now have plugins to enhance your browser, and internet speed!

I think, most people who are on the internet A LOTEek and technical people use Mozilla.  People who just have a computer and sometimes use it for some things(majority of people) use IE


that didn't make any sense?

i'm using opera 9.01
opera has more feature by default, you don't need to install any add-on's (they're no add-on's anyways, opera's widgets works differently)
and because it has those options built in, those features are better integrated. contrary to firefox, which some add-on's may have compatibility problems sometimes, and those are not running from the core, so they'll run a bit slower.
opera is also lighter and faster by default, and believe it or not. it's the most standard compliant browser

firefox is ok, it's quite fast, popular (because open source, that's why it has a bigger support community and more programmers working on it and on the add-ons, and helping spreading it)

Incorret.

Yes Opera does pass the acid 2 test, and is therefore fully standards complient, but so do another 6 browsers Wink

Safari being the first Smile
