I use Debian GNU/Linux, in that distribution the Firefox is renamed as Iceweasel. Most of time I use Galeon though.

Microsoft has been trying to convince people NOT to use IE because of all its security leaks... it's a problem with the code. I believe the newest couple of versions are okay, but they are still not as safe or as fast as Firefox for your PC.

I sometimes use Firefox, but not very often. I use Safari for 95% of my web browsing needs because for mac it's faster (and nicer looking) than Firefox.

I use Firefox on PC, and Safari or Firefox on Mac. I tend to use Firefox a bit more on Macs since there's alot of formatting issues with certain webpages I visit with Safari.

I'm not exactly 'scared' of using FireFox since I never tried it before, but... I am.  Sad

Firefox in Windows XP, Vista, and Ubuntu 6.10 (Debian based Linux).
I still have a problem playing small wavs and MIDIs embedded in webpages though.

Kicked out Safari in favour of Firefox. Always liked Netscape better than IE before Netscape got the heartattack called IE. However I use w3m at work so it seems like I'm working.

W3M is a text only browser, see how the Edoropolis Emporium front page looks within it. Really it looks like a boring working environment for programmer, isn't it Purrcat?  Wink
I knew other text only browse, it's Lynx, but less powerful than W3M.

Oh well I'm used to working text-only. Usually a stack of xterms, green-on-black. I program with vi, no syntax highlight for it makes my eyes hurt. So, not really that boring, in my view Speedy Wink All that clicking in other environments wears me down Tongue

I guess most young Win users don't know about DOS era, when we operated computer through key typing. Unix environments (including linux) still rely much in commands entered by keyboard, without graphical elements. Sounds pretty odd? One can work very efficiently in such environment, sometimes more than in point-click-and-drag desktop. I'm not sure if there are text only browsers for DOS though.

I program with vi, no syntax highlight for it makes my eyes hurt.

I don't know if Violet's remark is serious or if she is kidding...  Undecided
Anyway vi is a lengendary text editor for Unix. See this link titled Vi Lovers Home Page (calm down, it's not what you are thinking) to learn more about.
