I've not had a single problem with IE7. Since I'm not a complete moron, I don't have problems with security, either. I uninstalled FF after playing with IE7 for a few weeks.

Opera has two problems.
1. Click back too many times and you get some stupid bitch that belongs in a Mac commercial on your screen.
2. There's no small back/forward arrow to skip multiple pages back/forward.
Until they fix those, FF FTW!

#1 - Never had that happen to me.
#2 - Why do you need those? There are back and forward buttons. If it's still not there, check your trash can and just reopen what you want.

2. If you click the right edge of the back and forward button at the top, it will drop down a list of the pages you can go to. In essence it does allow you to skip multiple pages back or forward. Additionally you can use the fast-forward and fast-back buttons to go back/forward many pages at once.

1. I have been using Opera for a long while now and have never seen some stupid bitch that belongs in a Mac.

1. - I've used Opera for a long time. I don't remember what the screen looked for the very first time. I set up my tabs and that was it. Set it and forget it.Originally posted by: HamburgerBoy

1. So when you open Opera for the first time (thus to your homepage), the back arrow is faded and can't be clicked any more? If I click it I get sent to some lame Opera website.
2. Convenience and speed. FF and Opera are slow when you go to previous pages and it makes it even worse when you have to wait a few seconds for each page.
Just remembered another...
3. Those stupid sunglasses. WTF are they there for? The whole browser feels so Macified I can't stand it.

2. - Opera is much MUCH faster for me than FF and uses far less memory. (Although I've found that IE7 uses even less memory than Opera). To be fair though, I haven't had to wait a few seconds for a tab to open in FF, Opera, or IE7 unless I had something else memory-intensive going on on my system. I have 2G ram though so maybe that's it? I don't know your system config.
3. - I have no idea what sunglasses you're talking about. I don't use the standard Opera theme. I use the Orion Dark theme on my Opera.

1. I don't really get it. So after setting my homepage I still need to set other stuff properly? It seems like it remembers every page you go to and thus the first page (Mac girl) is always there.
2. Yeah, 512MB may be the problem... still ridiculous that a browser would require so much though, IMO.

Right Alt just highlights the "File, Edit, View, etc" tabs at the top for me. I was simply scrolling down when it happened.
Weird. In Opera, when I do Alt+right I get donut boy also.Originally posted by: HamburgerBoy

Just click on DP's "MR PUSH PUSH AND I" signature link and it's the same result. Just an image with nothing else. I'm not so worried about the doughnut anymore as I am links opening on their own again.

Same things keep me from switching. And I don't like having to fall back to another browser for certain tasks, since Rossman mentioned some incompatibilities and poor rendering in Opera.Originally posted by: Aharami
yea im sticking to ffx. too many new things to get used to in opera. i like the look and feel of opera better, but I dont feel like taking the time to figure it out (clicking middle button in opera doesnt enable fast scroll)

All the more reason to stay with IE7.
