I don't ask.  Do I ask?  I don't ask.  I'm just wicked nosy today.
[Poll #1360767]
Of course, as soon as I post, I think of a million ways to better phrase that.

I use IE for work, and Opera/Chrome for browser testing.  However, I only selected Firefox, because that's the one I use because I want to and I like it.

(also I have kmeleon, primary purpose so [livejournal.com profile] hitchhiker can quickly check his email from my bed without killing my cookies, which he hates doing.

Firefox overtakes IE6 as second most-used Web browser (and appears to be
closing in on IE7, too):

(SeaMonkey, my browser of choice, is pretty much just FireFox with the addition of e-mail and news-reading applications, like good ol' Mozilla. Web stats programs typically lump it into the "other Mozilla" category).

I should include that I use IE for work, but since I have no choice I did not include it.

firefox when i have the ram (work box), epiphany when i don't (home box), lynx is handiest sometimes, opera makes a good secondary browser when i want to use a proxy for certain sites (stupid geosensing!), midori for browsing local documentation, kmeleon when i'm on someone else's windows box (as [livejournal.com profile] mactavish noted, i hate disturbing someone else's cookies), links and dillo for when i want something between lynx and midori (fairly rarely, these days), arora because i'm keeping an interested eye on the project.

Aieee (internet explorer 6) at work becasue I'm not offered any choice. Firefox at home with adblock, flashblock, ietab and a couple other addons. This makes me feel more secure and gives me a much less cluttered browsing experience. I do visit a couple sites that specifically require ie (netflix watch instantly primarily) so ie tab lets me encapsulate those into another tab in firefox.

I also use a mozilla based browser on my internet tablet, but don't use it as much.
