What Browser do you use in Linux?

Hey Mates,
I was wondering about what browser you use in Linux, since they arent just one. The main are Konqueror and Mozilla. Which one do you use and think its the best? Im just curious.

Regards

If you like Konquerer, try out Opera. It's just as fast and has better plugin support IMO. Or if you REALLY want IE (why? you are using a non-MS operating system), you can get it to work under wine (at least I did).

Nah,
why should I want IE?
Its full of bugs, crappy, and its not rich in features... I like Konquerors, will stay with it. Opera I didnt like, Mozilla is too slow IMO, nah like Konqueror, lol

Viva la Revolucion! (Chueguevara) Talkin about Linux!

Msot people seem to be using Mozilla, why? I just dont like it, my surfing goes so slow with it, but Konqueror goes as IE, even better IMO. Well all have their choices.

Regards

Mozilla can be modified...and the new 1.4 version is faster. I use Mozilla Firebird, which is quite fast (faster than IE at least). Mozilla acan also be modified.

The reason we all use Mozilla tho is plugin support. It's the best for Linux.

Mozilla ............ I posted why here:
http://www.usalug.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=363

Basically, because you can do SO much with one app..... and I love the Tabbed browsing features..... (and yes I know Knoqueror and Opera have these too ) .... It just seems the most stable all around and looks the same in Windows or Linux. Opera is my second choice. Konqueror third and if I must... galeon .....
