Awesome Internet Browser

Obviously, I need something to replace microsoft's hand in internet-browsing evil: Internet Explorer. You guys know what I'm talking about. I'm ready for a new internet experience. I hate IE.

Mozilla Firebird is the best alternative IMO.

I agree Firefox is the best.

Yet, if you don't think you'd care for Firefox.

Try MyIE. It's a varation of Internet explorer and you can use the Mozilla engine called "
Gecko"

MyIE2 here too. Awesome browser IMO (unless you use the Yahoo toolbar, because it crashes all the time).

Try them both why don't you?

I tried MyIE2 and it is good but I like firefox better, the interface is cleaner and you gotta love all those extensions

Wow. MyIE2 is funky. I like it though. Athough firefox looks cleaner, MyIE2 seems more cool looking and aesthetically pleasing, you know?

To keep system resorces from being eaten up, should I just stick with IE, or will one of these others run quicker?
