(68,644 posts)1. I and many others won't go near Explorer.
For one thing, it's not even available for Macs anymore.
And, for another, it's not known for stability or security.
I have friends who like Chrome, but I'm partial to Firefox and Sea Monkey (similar to the old Netscape browser).

i like firefox best, but most of the time chrome is the best browser for speed/security. chrome is also the biggest hog of system resources, so i would play with both firefox and chrome, see which one you like best, and make that your 'default browser'.
anything but IE

I am the type that hates change. I tried Google, hated it. Tried Firefox, was better than Google but not nuts about it so go back to IE10.
Works for what I do on the computer but can see that people more accomplished than me would rather use something different.
