My support in selecting the best browser goes for Mozilla Firefox. I also use Google Chrome, Internet Explorer 8 and Opera in my computer.

Still no matter how much fast is Opera,the most thing which matters to most id fun and services.Firefox and many customizations and plugins which outrun Opera.
eg.Alexa ranking bar,greasemonkey etc.All are for Firefox and not for Opera and never will be.

Firefox rules for me.....
confused!!

Different people have different requirements over time and thats where different browsers serves the purpose. So no one is a clear winner. Opera is the winner when it comes to speed
