Best Browser Alternative to Internet Explorer?
What's your favorite non-IE (aka Active XPlorer) browser?

I've been trying out Mozilla's Firefox. Looks good so far, although some pages' tables look squished.

What's your alternative?

Opera? Fastbrowser?

etc?

As long as I'm designing webpages I'm gonna stick with the browser most of my surfers are using.

They all suck. Mozilla loads images SLOW. Hell I'm on broadband not dial-up.

Fireworks is good...

But IE under SP2 is 100x better.

I'm using Mozilla 1.7.2 and like it a lot. However it sometimes fucks-up forms , probably those using ActiveX (ie I haven't checked what the problem is). If it doesn't like a form for some reason I just use IE.

I'm using Opera about 99% of the time now. I have tried Firefox and that's OK, but Opera has way more cool features.

I have a couple sites I often go to that are apparently coded only to work with Explorer properly, so on those I open and use IE. I think it has to do with Microsoft's ActiveX scripting, which Opera doesn't support.

Opera is by far the best browser on the market right now.
