(If you know another internet browsers then please write me a PM with the new informations!)

[Sam_Zen]

Nice list Frank.. Thanks.

[Thefilmwall]

This is internet Browser............
Internet Explorer 5.0 or Less
Internet Explorer 6.0 or Greater
Mozilla FireFox
AOL Explorer
Safari
Netscape
MSN Web Browser
Opera

[Sam_Zen]

M$ will include Internet Explorer 8 in a next update patch package of Windoze.
Imo this is not acceptible..

[MItaly]

Why? As long as it can't be uninstalled it's right to keep it up to date.

[Sam_Zen]

Well. I like to have a choice...

[MItaly]

Nobody imposes you to install the updates.

[Skippybox]

That is true. Just change your automatic update options, and when you see the IE8 update, don't choose to install it. But, always be conscious of the risks you decide to take.

[Sam_Zen]

Well, I don't care, using FF. And I disable automatic updates anyway..

[MItaly]

Even if you don't use IE directly it is used embedded in a lot of applications (first of all: Windows Explorer), so you are still exposed to risks.
BTW I too use only Firefox.

[WellOiledPC]

WoW, that is the most comprehensive list of Browsers I have seen in one place! Great Research, Frank!

At www.welloiledpc.com/browser.htm, we have reviewed 13 Windows-based Browsers, with links to reviews of each of these 13 Browsers.

We haven't been able to decide which Browser is the Best, but the online poll on the page indicates that Firefox is way ahead! If you want a more robust answer, check out http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp - they track Browser and OS usage very comprehensively and authoritatively!

[Frank]

Hi WellOiledPC,

thank you for your answer!
I will add CometBird to my list.

Were Firefox almost at 50% everywhere it would be a better world... as they state on w3schools:

W3Schools is a website for people with an interest for web technologies. These people are more interested in using alternative browsers than the average user. The average user tends to use Internet Explorer, since it comes preinstalled with Windows. Most do not seek out other browsers.

These facts indicate that the browser figures above are not 100% realistic. Other web sites have statistics showing that Internet Explorer is used by at least 80% of the users.

[WellOiledPC]

Hi WellOiledPC,

thank you for your answer!
I will add CometBird to my list.

You're welcome, Frank!

[WellOiledPC]

Were Firefox almost at 50% everywhere it would be a better world... as they state on w3schools:

Hi MItaly, Firefox is definitely preferable, if you are a Web Developer/ SEO/ Security specialist. I use Firefox too!

However, for people who merely want to browse their favorite sites, there are much faster and simpler Browsers - Avant, Orca, TheWorld, etc.

Apple Safari is a wonderful Browser too - those who come from the Mac world would, I am sure, look at nothing else!

You have a number of Social Networking fiends these days - people who spend all their time at Facebook, Twitter and other sites. Such people are likely to prefer Flock, for its built-in Social Networking features.

People who have used Opera swear by it. In terms of loyalty, Opera I think commands more loyalty than even Firefox! Of course, the number of people using Opera is very small, compared to Firefox users, but "Once an Opera user, always an Opera user" seems to be the case with a much larger proportion of Opera users!

Maxthon is again a very interesting and underrated Browser. True, it does not have the lovely looks of Safari or Flock...

I think we are likely to witness two major wars in the next 1 to 2 years: a Search Engine War and a Browser War! Let's all just sit back and relax - for, every time such a thing happens, the consumer gets a better product for a cheaper price!
