FF all the way, getting a bit bloated these days, but FF with adblock plus makes browsing almost a pleasure. (I can't recognise the sites when I see them in IE with all the ad's ;D)

Still with FF - but I also use Opera a fair bit.
Maybe you should add Safari which many Mac people use.

That will have been me… a lack of a Safari option earlier meant I had to vote ‘Other’.

For me, now that Chrome has extension support it's great. That's what I was waiting for before using is regularly.

Doesn't have extension support on the Mac yet, which is why FF is still the one for me...

Firefox, although now Chrome has extension support I can almost make it behave how I configure Firefox to.
@artmo, the main benefit of Chrome over Firefox for me is the speed. Chrome does seem snappier and less bloated IMO.

With FF 3.7 it should catch up with Chrome and IE8 in utilising multi-core processors, which should make it snappier too..

Re: Battle Of The Web Browser's(poll)

Thanks Bob.  Does it have a similar appearance?
Adiewoo, when is FF 3.7 available?  I'm currently on 3.5.7.
