Worst I've used was Netscape Navigator.
I'm not much for computers, so you have mentioned a few I have not heard of till now.

Safari.

I know the Wii has/had Opera. But I no longer have a Wii. For now.
 
Oh, gosh. I remember Netscape XD;
It was horrid. ~_~;

I use Firefox, for now, but often I switch to Chrome for periods of time when I get frustrated with firefox. ):

I also think the interface of Safari is absolutely hideous but I have Mac-using friends who might hit me for saying that. XD;

I'd really like Opera as an alt browser but Chrome is just a lot faster. D:

Not I!

I think it's totally out of place on a Windows environment, and thus weird looking. A Windows-looking app on a Mac would look just as hideous.

When I'm on my PC I use Firefox. When I'm on my Mac I use Safari. I like Firefox better for the amount of add-ons. Not so much its themes. The bulk of its themes are disgustingly hideous. I can't stand them. I just go for a native OS-feel and leave it at that. Personas add to the horror.

But the Mac its speed fluctuates with each update. Sometimes its only usable, sometimes zippy, most of the time slow as molasses. Safari has been consistently quick for me. Plus Cookies, Glims, AdBlocker, and GreaseMonkey support it makes Safari more Firefox like.

Eww Netscape, that brings up some not so nice memories on my end.

I use Opera and Firefox, the first mainly. They're both alt browsers depending on whichever computer I use. When I'm on my laptop, I use Opera as my main browser...while Firefox is my main browser on this desktop.

Ever since spending like a year on my Wii, I've grown to hate the Opera browser.

Well, that's the Wii version. The Wii should not be used for internet browsing. It's just too cumbersome to type on.

When I click both Firefox and chrome to start up. Chrome always beats it, at least by 10-15 seconds.

I bet you have a ton of add-ons in your Firefox and haven't cleaned out your bookmarks/temporary files in ages. Chrome only beats it out by five seconds on mine (again, because FF has 10-15 addons, 500+ bookmarks, and a huge browsing history, while Chrome just has the default stuff, 75 bookmarks, and a not quite as large browsing history).
 
I use Internet Explorer 6. Its simpleness has drawn me in <3

Nope, they both have pretty much the same exact things and amount. :3

It's not simple at all... There's like 3 browser bars and the useless Bing...

Chrome is tons more simpler, and it actually (like firefox) does searchs in the URL bar... IE takes too long to do that, plus it uses encarta or something I think...
 
I've been using good old Firefox for a couple of years now, and I've never been looking back to Internetexplorer times. I tried Opera and Safari, but I'm sticking with Firefox. Mine is not even slow, because I'm using only few Add-Ons.
 
Despite occasional crashes and freezes, Firefox is light years ahead of IE. I only keep IE around because I'm logged into my alternate email account on it.
 
I've used Firefox for a long time now.

I RARELY use IE7/8. I only do it if I have to for some stupid reason. I hate it.

Chrome is slow as hell on my computer for some reason, so i'm kinda stuck with Firefox.
Firefox is fast for me, so i'm happy with it.
I do NOT like the newest update though, since with the Blue Fox theme which is my favorite theme.. well..

Yeah, it becomes impossible to see what is checked and what is not checked when i'm going to delete my browsing history, which kinda sucks..

Firefox is great for me otherwise though.
 
When I was younger and using my computer-illiterate parents' desktop I accidentally deleted the IE icon and thought I had deleted the internet. Now I use Firefox and nothing else, but I still have IE sitting on my computer which I'm illogically afraid to delete.
 
My alt used to be Chrome but the speed is just so alluring that I had to give up Firefox for it.
Firefox is nice and all, and it has some advantages(it actually BOLDS the text in the textbox without having tags next to it), but speed is basically all that matters to me.

Ew, IE. I never used that when I had the chance to use anything else. I only used it once on my Windows, and that was to download Firefox :/
 
Absolutely not :[
I'm way too illiterate for these kinds of things.
I'll just use that bar thing that's on the top of Macs(terrible placement btw) and maybe I'll find it.

In other news, I finally got Wi-fi :DDDDDDDD
 
I never really paid much attention to the WYSIWYG editor; I have it turned on for some browsers, but others not.
And personally, I don't see a large speed difference between Chrome and Firefox. Maybe I'm crazy, but I don't really want to give up Firefox's convenient interface.
