Back to Firefox on both desky and lappy for me. Mostly because of extensions and more settings to play with.

Extension free for nearly a year and a half. *twitch*

OK, how about we discuss which extensions you guys use? I haven't used any in awhile

I'm a full-time FF user, and I refuse to run FF w/o Delicious, NoScript, AdBlock, and Download Statusbar

I run delicious because I hate hate hate bookmarks, and I hate having them on one machine but not another. So whoo hoo there.

NoScript and AdBlock kill web advertising. Going to Chrome/IE is ANNOYING.

DL Statusbar is the way the download manager in FF SHOULD be implemented, IMO, so it's a nice addition.

On my machine at home, I have IETab for rendering stuff with Exploder inside of Mozilla--good for occasional web development.

Oh, and I keep Chrome around for occasional illicit web surfing. That is all.

I haven't posted in this thread before, because I'm too attached to FF to even try Chrome...

Being 56k & paranoid, I love the combo of Cookie Monster, CookieMan Context, Flashblock, and NoScript.  I also have Greasemonkey, but NoScript seems to make it redundant.

I really do hate the idea that some sites will eat up my limited band-width, just to show me their stupid dancing graphic, and attempt to win the "who is more anal?" contest.  (I rock that contest, with these ext's.)

Choosing to view blocked Flash (and which to view) can get almost as annoying as watching all the silly things, to begin with ---but some sites really do bludgeon you with that stuff to such an extent, I still find it necessary.

Oh, I use printpdf too... so I can be closer to "paperless."  Not that it works as well as Paperless Printer did, but PP is currently incompatible with my FF version.
Dude!  There's no WAY that's your daughter's favorite song!
oh, uh-oh --wait, wait... Is she in a coma???

At home I use FF 98% of the time, dipping my feet into Chrome 1% and IE 1%

At work FF 80%, IE 20%

Chrome is interesting but without plug-ins I can't really make practical use of it. I don't want to see ads all over the place.

As most here I use AdBlock, NoScript, SafeHistory, SafeCache (yes I'm still on FF 2.0) and FlashGot.

Really wish they would update SafeHistory, Cache for 3.0.
