Actually,
Mozilla>Firefox>IE>Netscape.
Netscape is pure bloatware now.
Haven't tried Opera, so I can't comment.
IE is by far the best for collecting media/SWF files though. Accessible cache? Hell yes!

Yeah, I like the Temporary Internet Files too.
But, if you think of it, the only reason IE is the number 1 web browser is because Microsoft Force-Feeds it down everybody's throats by having it integrated with Windows (which is part of the problem -- the "critical" Windows/IE security updates I get are so common it's not funny).

I tried it. Don't see the difference or any reason to stop using IE. Firefox does seem slower, though. I have a couple minor issues with IE6 that I never had with IE5 (doesn't recognize some urls, and it likes to keep everything in the same damn window at random times for no apparent reason), but nothing worth getting in a panic over.
I thought people stopped using Netscape in the 1900s.
IE's the dominant power because of AOL moreso than Windows bundling.

The big difference is Firefox is open source, hence theoretically bugs can be fixed more quickly.

I use crazy browser myself. I tried Firefox for awhile, but I prefer Crazy browser's setup a bit better.

Crazybrowser, eh? I'll give it a try. If it works, I just might ditch Opera.
Edit: I tried it and found its link toolbar capabilities insufficient. Forget it, I'm not using a browser that won't let me have a links toolbar separate from IE.

Firefox tells me the weather. Firefox controls my cookies. Firefox pwns popups. Firefox has tabs. Firefox can nuke anything.
Firefox is love. That is all.
