IE7 Vs. Everyone Else

Four tech experts battle over which is the best browser -- Internet Explorer 7, Firefox, Opera, or Maxthon. We take you on a visual tour of each, then let you make the call.

By Ed Bott, Scot Finnie, Dennis Fowler, and Ron White


Are you an Internet Explorer traditionalist? An old-time Opera booster? A fervent Firefox enthusiast? Or an advocate of possible Next-Big-Thing Maxthon?
Now that Microsoft has come out with the public preview of its upcoming Internet Explorer 7 for XP, it is time to explore exactly why IE is still top dog, whether it deserves to bear that title, and which browsers may be closing in on its tail.

Getting Passionate About Browsers
Challenging IE is not an easy task — when a browser ships along with your operating system, and is the default for which most site owners design their pages, it's hard to challenge its primacy. And Microsoft knew this — for a long time, IE seemed to be resting on its laurels, ignoring such popular features as RSS readers and tabbed browsing.

I've heard so much about Firefox but I don't much about puters and am leery of screwing up by adding a new browser.

We'll I can understand that. But IF your running Windows XP, you can make a System Restore Point. And after that, close your eyes and download Firefox. Some times you just got to be brave and take the leap. Make sure you have enough room on your computer thou. I don't have time to expound right now thou, maybe Computer Wiz can or will.

I'll try posting more Firefox info for you. Keep a look out. It will be in about 4 days.

Does it count if my favourite browser is the one my company forces me to use? ;D

Yes, that counts.

LOVE Firefox.
I like the add-ins, too.
My favorites right now are Forecast Fox, Adblock, and Session Manager.

I mostly use Firefox, but when I upgraded to Slack 11, it came with Sea Monkey, which I like just fine. Sometimes I get lazy and just use Konqueror because I already have it open as a file manager, but it really is a sucky browser. I haven't installed Dillo yet, but I really like that one when it works because it's so light and fast. I also sometimes like to use a text browser like Lynx.

I gather most people here are using Windows?
