Big Smile Which is the best browser?

I have seen a fair few postings re internet browsers. For example, some people like PIE and some don't rate it. I am interested to see which is generally rated best my most people.

Any info on why it is your preferred browser would also be much appreciated.

Brax

Well I must say that Opera wins. Yes, it has troubles with long pages, yes, it lacks any support of flash and java (not javascript, javascript works perfectly!). But the way Opera renders the pages is simply amazing.

Netfront would have the second prize, because it is all what Opera is not. Only thing it lacks is a better rendering engine...

I have a dream. It's merging Opera with Netfront. Geez, that would be a browser I'd pay for.

Yours sincerely,

I have NetFront which I use most of the time. I also have MultiIE which I use with internet explorer. I tried Opera and had problems on some web pages and decided on Netfront. I found that IE works better on some web sites and so I will use it for those sites, but otherwise I use NetFront.

Lol, Maybe we'll get a new answer to this poll. I personally like NetFront the best..!!

Netfront is awesome! I'm a firefox user and have been waiting for something mobile from mozilla.. unfortunatly minimo( www.mozilla.org/projects/minimo/ ) doesn't seem to rock as much ax I hoped, its early days though.
A newer flash version would be sweeet too.
