[Liverpool] What's your browser?

I use Firefox and Opera. Most of the time I use firefox (I just can
not live without AdBlock plus, scrapbook and del.icio.us extensions).
However when I want to browse something fast I use Opera. I think it
is *the best* engineered   browser. I used to hate the adware version
but now that it is free I am happy with it.

BTW, Konqueror is quite a nice browser too, unfortunately in my
experience  K Desktop Environment  is very unstable so I prefer Gnome
(that, and that it was "created" by Miguel de Icaza, a Mexican ;-)


Regards,
Omar.
