Which Web browser do u use?

Dear Fedoralovers

Which Web browser do u use?

Konqueror
Firefox
Opera

Give reasons for ur preference.

I use Konq coz its better integrated into KDE and I'm not
too much into FF extensions.

Take care
Newbie

Agreed, Firefox is the default browser. And it's the default for a reason. Firefox is taking off in terms of internet acceptance.

Konq (despite being an excellent application) is nowhere near the same level of use and compatability of Firefox. There's also the fact that Konq is a bit of a multi-purpose tool rather than a dedicated web explorer.

Firefox - it's quite fast, comfortable and stable. And now it's a default browser for FC

Firefox is best because of adblock and the UI is simple.

I use firefox. It is the default and I am a default type of guy....Not. I like firefox cause of it's ability to customize it. I like how it can be enhanced with add ons and coding. Instead of using something that isn't as customizable.

I use Internet Explorer and XP most of the time. I can't stand Firefox. I'm looking into other browsers for Linux.

Firefox on Fedora. Firefox and IE equally on Windows. I really prefer Firefox, but sometimes IE runs a little faster and I used to have problems with various websites using Firefox. Less problems now, so I'm slowly changing my preference towards Firefox over IE....

Actually it took a while for me to get away from Mozilla over to Firefox.... just a different style of usage between the two browsers.
