I have IE8, Firefox and Google Chrome. Getting ready to add Opera soon to see if it's any more tolerable than before. It seems as soon as I get to like a browser I find a news article about new tracking ware or ad ware the browser has been in bed with the whole time. I guess it has more to do with the tracking cookies and stats these days. But I really don't think a person can get on the internet with any feeling of privacy anymore.

I'm not sure how many people purchase items on the internet or how much online ads play a part in offline advertising (yes that's possible). But I don't think it's played that big a roll for me. I would probably pay a decent annual subscription rate just to have the trackers leave me alone.

Default Re: How many internet browsers do you have installed?

Desktop: Chrome (default), Iron, Firefox, SeaMonkey, Safari, IE 8 (usually only used in 64 bit mode).

Laptop: Even more!

I like to have Chrome & Firefox on any computer. Iron & SeaMonkey are back-ups just in case & I like to use them for certain things. Safari has some features I like (reader). I've used Iron for a long time, well before I ever used Chrome. Unfortunately it is still not stable enough to be my default. This last version is one of the best they have done though.

Sometimes I just like variety. It's worth checking out other browsers & giving them a spin occasionally. Just to see.

Lately only Chrome. I've just updated it to version 7: very fast indeed.

Firefox 3.6.11 with Adblock Plus and NoScript is my main browser, and IE is the second (used mostly only for downloading Windows updates manually).

I thought Konqueror could run on Windows, I was always thinking of trying it out one day.

It is developed by volunteers and can run on most Unix-like operating systems and on Windows systems, too.

Default Re: How many internet browsers do you have installed?

3 browsers that I usually have installed on my system:

IE8 since it comes with Windows. Hardly use it...not due to security concerns (I can harden it) but more of missing *features* that are important for me.
Firefox - default browser. Optimized and minimal add-ons. Currently on the V4 beta release and MineField.

Optional secondary browser - sometimes installed, sometimes portable version:
Google Chrome/Iron - using similar (fork) add-ons to those of Firefox.

I can't get myself to using Opera much yet no matter how many times I've attempted to. It's a very nice browser, filled with built-in features but it's missing certain touches that's fitted with my personal needs/wants. And it doesn't play nice with all sites...at least that's how it is for me. I'll have another go at it when V11 is released.

I used to toy around with other non-mainstream browsers frequently in the past but grew tired of the habit.
