I have 4 browsers on my computer (well, 5, but I don't count the text one). And Chrome is the first one I go to. There are some sites that don't work well for it, so keep firefox around for stuff like that. | | | |

I use nothing but Google Chrome. You might want to install the EXIF extension ( https://chrome.google.com/webstore/d...kbplhkoiekndck) and maybe an Internet Explorer Emulator extension for a few strange websites. | | | |

Chrome has become my default browser both at home and work Too bad our new product doesn't officially support Chrome, but I've found only one problem that doesn't also happen in Firefox and IE8. And some of the newer extensions are really nice.

FF user here, and I love it, but it's such a resource hog... I've been looking for a replacement, maybe I will give Chrome a try. | | | |

Speeds up the browsing experience, stops a lot of hijack/spyware attempts, etc. It's just smart to run something to block ads these days.

Last I checked, Chrome doesn't recognize color space. Slight difference between it and FF and IE.

Having Kaspersky Internet Security blocks ads from being displayed on ALL my browsers at once, without having to download and install something like ABP for each one.
