IE, and sometimes Mozilla. Mozilla's better, but I'm too lazy to change the default browser. Or add an icon. :)

I use Avant Browser, which is basically Internet Explorer with tabs and refresher and stuff. My regular IE browser is infested with toolbars and a spyware blue toolbar that I can't click close even those there's an exit button that blocks the bottom of my screen. :D

IE crashes all the time. Microsoft hasn't done much technology in the last couple of years. That's what monopoly brings us. So...

Use Firefox!!! :)

Yea they haven't updated it for so long, you think the most used browser would get a LOT more updates. :?

Yup. You'd think they should at least have a build-in popup ad blocking facility by this time. It's a simple thing for them. After they killed Netscape, they basically did nothing to improve IE, and it keeps having security problems.

Also, Google just put out Google Desktop to search the files in your machine and the websites you've visited. It's way faster than Windows own search.

Actually I think IE does, if you click on Tools the second item is the Pop-Up Blocker. It doesn't appear on screen until it blocks a pop-up, then a yellow bar comes up.
And thanks for the tip, Google keeps coming up with so much stuff. :D
I have a gmail account, but I guess now I won't need to use it because Hotmail is giving 250MB for free.

Hmm, I couldn't find it. I'm using Google's popup blocker anyway.

I think I got it in an update a month or more ago, not sure when, but it was recent. It's still 6.0 though. Well as long as you have something that works. :)

I use Internet Explorer for most of the time, then I'll use Opera sometimes and rarely I'll use Netscape Navigator.

I use Opera too, but it has a lot of problems sometimes when it comes to certain sites such as HSX.

I as well use Internet Explorer. Lately, there has been no pop-ups on my computer. I don't know what happened, I must have installed a pop-up blocker without knowing it....

What do you mean? Go to mozilla.com and download it, and then set it as your default browser.
