    18 months ago : Slimbrowser, basically IE skin with popup blocker and other stuff built in.

    12 months ago : Firefox, the one everyone knows and loves, no problems at all with it, but.....

    Now : Opera 8 Free, it's my default at home and work. If a site doesnt render propaly then Firefox is used, but Opera has impressed me a lot and the free bit makes it all that much better :)

    I'm a die hard longtime Firefox fan. It was love at first browse for me despite the occasional rendering problems in the older version for which I made use of the IE View extension which allowed me to right click a nonrendering page and open it in IE. In all honesty I can't remember the last time I had to use it since the folks at Mozilla have been doing a bang up job with their product :)

    finally setup my spare PC (an olde worlde Compaq Deskpro P466 Celeron with 192MB) just for internet surfing so i can leave main PC doing dvd burning etc etc without it being disturbed. Internet Explorer is a tad too memory-hungry on this machine so i've switched to Firefox; after using it all day it's pretty good but i need to try and add more RAM as i tend to open loads of browser windows to help with fixing ppl's logfiles etc. haven't tweaked Firefox or anything yet but touch wood it's not too bad at all

    If you ever get any spare time you should try tweaking it. It's worthwhile, you really notice the difference.

    I've dabbled with Firefox on a couple of occasions but had the odd glitches with it (rendering mainly)...
    SO...IE6 it is for me, and never had a problem with it. I'm using a good hosts file, so NO pop-ups whatsoever ;o)

    Looks the same to me in both IE and Firefox, and even Opera... try emptying your IE's Cache, and then viewing it again.

    Yes tried that, but still not seeing that Group/Person column in IE.
    Downloaded Opera, doesn't show that column either.
