For all you ie users, [like myself], i recommend trying Advance Browser, it's a kickoff of ie, but with many more features and much quicker, this is what i use and it does a fine job for me. [that's my 2 bits worth]

I recommend Maxthon for browsing, it is secure and supports tab browsing and remembers your last visted pages.

You're wrong... MAxthon even blocks ads and popups automtically... like if I go to a Yahoo page and it's got an ad.... BAM eliminated

Even if Maxthon, AvantBrowser, or any other IE add-on improves the security aspect, it still doesn't change the fact that Microsoft refuses to comply with the HTML specs. That's why many pages don't look "correct" in Opera or Firefox - they're coded using FrontPage and Microsoft's version of HTML. Personally, I have an issue with that practice.

As do I... but I prefer good old notepad page making... there's more satisfaction to it and besides... to me, it's more reliable.

Firefox. All the way!!
I really the way you can change, add, or make it look however you want. I do not believe it is any worse than IE for security. In fact people haven't been aiming at it as hard as IE, so it is making progress learning from what IE has had to endure.
