What is the fastest web browser?

[Leo154]

Actually I'm using Opera 7 now... I payed for it too coz i like it so much...

Even though phoenix is great... Opera 7 is better... more flexable and loads up quicker.. I don't know about loadng pages quicker though.. but I like the usability.. and skinz too. Also, it caches history.. In phoenix I never found out how to work offline...

Opera 7 rulez! And its still in beta.. .so its gonna be great soon!

I agree with leo here, Opera 7 is an awesome web browser...

Take a look around the forums (just browse or use the search feature), dealer has many threads/posts with tweaks and tips for IE.

You mean 0.5

Actually, I take back what I said about opera...

Its a wierd browser that doesn't really fit me well. Sure its fast, but the Mozilla is just so much more suitable for me..

The bad news is that I already payed $$ (my dad payed ), the good news is that my sister is so amazingly excited about it...

Also Mozilla Mail ROXX

Same for me, I just find opera to be wierd, i can't get used to it at all.

I certainly agree with these two posts...except that opera was absolutely NOT faster then pheonix or ie on any benchmarks I performed

Can I just ask why you payed for something that is still in beta?

 

[ReC0iL]

lol, good question.... I want to know also....

 

[SPeedY_B]

I Should think that its a one time lisence that will carry across to the final version and possibly to further upgrades.

Anyway the beta's nice and stable. Just because a product is in beta stages, it does mean that it's going to melt your computer.

I realise that the licence carries across, but surely you'd want to wait to see how the final version turned out before paying.

I see what your saying, but if your impressed enough with a beta product, you may aswell register it (get rid of the ad banners) and then your all sorted for the final.

I've used the Opera 7 beta release, and its stable as can be in my opinion.

 

[djwhite]

Ok then, but there is no way I'd pay for beta, that's all I'm saying.

hi all , fastest browser ...

that's depend O.S , XP load part of library IE ... but Phoenix 0.5 or Mozilla 1.xx are fast also and secure

i have tried opera 6.5 on XP pro SP1 & MDK 8.2 , yep it's fast, but i hate ads , i don't want pay for this ... i know astalavista ...

For me a browser, like Mozilla is the best , client pop , irc , downlad manager , pop-up manager, Tabs, Gesture mouse surf , settings javascript , and the great www.mozdev.org with all projects ...

Dual boot , Windows Xp pro SP1 , Linux MDK 8.2.

 

[ReC0iL]

mmmm... Im still not sure what would be the fastest.... Opera so far is the fastest yet, but I can't decide.... lol

fastest web browser?

hi ya all,

i've used all of those browsers above and it seemed they were almost all the same. however, for page loading, mozilla 1.2.1 rules but annoying pop-ups and ads bother me.

opera is cool. i don't like the ads. i don't like to pay for it either.

Im using MyIE now. it's a plug-in for IE6 that incorporates features of opera, mozilla, etc.... its simpler and does all the features done by other browser (except Chatzilla though) but it's cool coz i don'y use that much.

Phoenix is fast but I have found K-meleon to be faster and use less resources than the rest.

im on a 10mbit, i use opera 7.02, i find that sometimes it runs slower than ie but i like opera for its options. no browser is going to run better in a windows environment than ie, without a doubt. if you are looking for functionality, i suggest going with opera

 

[Geffy]

so far I have IE6 and Opera 6.02 installed, thing Mozilla is next, gonna try all three, but I am damn used to IE, been using it for Donkeys years
