I tried to get my parents to start using Firefox after they got their main computer infected twice in one month, but they weren't using it. What I ended up doing is moving all their bookmarks over to Firefox, installing an IE theme (and Adblock Plus, of course), changing the icon for Firefox to IE's icon, and renaming it to "Internet Explorer" (getting the title bar to read as such required some clever hex editing on my part). They didn't know the difference, and they haven't gotten infected since.

Firefox is the only one i can use in Ubuntu. It rocks either way
Opera has a version for pretty much every major Linux distribution. As for Safari, it's pretty much just an improved version of Konqueror (WebKit is a branch version of KHTML). Chrome doesn't have Linux support yet, but give them your email and they'll tell you when it's ready. Aside from that, you could always use WINE to run whatever ones run on Windows, though IE is a pain in the rear (try IEs4Linux for a quick and easy install, they've also got a beta for IE7 support).

Firefox. Mainly because of a certain add-on that I really need for a site, and it's only for Firefox. XD;;;

I use Google Chrome, and I like it a lot.

Doubt it'll be switching anytime real soon.

Mozilla Firefox is by far the fastest -- Internet Explorer takes too long to close >.>

And Firefox looks the best too.
