I have recently converted to Chrome. Very nice browser. Has built in synch for bookmarks. Very good at keeping my office and home browsers synchronised. Starts very quickly.

I found Firefox becoming very slow. Maybe because I've overloaded it with gadgets and apps and stuff.

Different threads entirely. One is about a browser while the other is about a start page.

I use Firefox and don't have any issues with it at the moment. I have been meaning to give Chrome a try some time as well.

That's the one downside I have found with Firefox - very easy for it to get bogged down with gadgets.

I use Firefox at work though - but I think I only have one non-standard add-on.

On my netbook at home I use Safari - I like the look, it's much cleaner than IE.

On my wife's Notebook I use Chrome - very sleek.

Server stats for this site should be able to tell what browsers are used ...

Wait! It doesn't say why or why not a certain browser is used...

I'd like to use Chrome...but there are several sites I visit regularly which do not support Chrome.

I use Firefox for my computers...but there are even a couple of sites which don't support that either, which is the only reason I have IE installed on my computers at all.

Google Chrome 99.9% of the time.

I switch to IE for sites that use crap like ActiveX and Silverlight. I wouldn't even visit them otherwise except that I need to for work.

Can someone post a link for a site that Chrome does not work on? I'm interested to see what the page will look like. I've not yet encountered a page Chrome won't handle...

Also a couple that aren't safe for work I know for sure.

This site doesn't work properly in Chrome either

http://robotiq.nl/robotIQ/index.php

It can be viewed, and the links work, but there's an interactive component that does not work, and thus makes it useless for using.
