725048 2008-12-05 02:52:00 Yup 3.1 of FF is in beta. I see Opera 10 alpha is out and about too. Which by the looks of it, passes the acid 3 test, (if anyone cares) 100% Speedy Gonzales (78)
725049 2008-12-05 02:54:00 yea, its name shirteko or something GameJunkie (72)
725050 2008-12-05 03:03:00 For web based gaming, I prefer IE8. Used Firefox, but like a new toy, I slowly got sick of it.

I do still use Firefox occasionally, for some addins.

725051 2008-12-05 22:42:00 Opera gets my vote.
Well designed, its fast and rarely has any security problems(which seem to get fixed very,very quickly). Another benefit is that its market share is small enough to make it a lesser target for bad boys. On second thoughts I withdraw my vote.:D

725052 2008-12-05 22:45:00 is opera faster than chrome though? GameJunkie (72)
725053 2008-12-05 23:39:00 Fast enough, its probably subjective as net connection speeds change constantly, and other factors other than your browser effect your experience. Probably the best test is to use both for a while. I have found its certainly not slower than other browsers I've tried (haven't tried Chome yet). PPp (9511)
725054 2008-12-06 01:05:00 got opera 9.62 and it seems to me to be just as fast as FF 3.0.4 GameJunkie (72)
725055 2008-12-06 01:09:00 Opera 10 Alpha and any other browser will be a LOT faster, once you install Privoxy

It'll block everything for you

725056 2008-12-06 01:11:00 does the alpha crash a lot though? GameJunkie (72)
725057 2008-12-06 01:15:00 Ive just installed it. Seems to be fine so far. At least it loads sites faster than 9.62 Speedy Gonzales (78)
