Ya but IE is a bit outdated ... i mean outdated in its features. It has only basic features while the new gen browsers have extra stuff that make them more user friendly and attractive :)

Sometimes you dont need lots of features, its a web browser to browse webpages. You dont NEED tabs, you dont NEED all the extra features, there just handy :P

I downloaded Deer Park 1 Alpha its pretty good (y)

I use Firefox, but I am not really happy with it (Still some javascript wee-wee's here and there.), does Opera has same problems like that?

I never have had any problem Opera and JavaScript (or anything else), except "copy to clipboard". "Copy to clipboard" isn't real JavaScript, is Microsoft proprietary code that looks like JavaScript.

RE: Your favorite web browser?
well I use firefox because of its extenibility , its speed and its evergrowing support for standerds also i love userscripts.
I know opera has userscripts too which look pretty good I havnt really played around with them much but it seems they give the coder more power so that they could fix the pages insted of just adding new fetures to that webpage and kinda fixing them using greasemonkey (a userscript loader for firefox).
I spose what draws me to firefox more than opera is that I can change anything within the browser using extentions, having more controll over my browser.

you can enable copy to clipboard by putting one of the two things bellow into your user.js

To enable for all sites
code:
user_pref("capability.policy.default.Clipboard.cutcopy","allAccess");
user_pref("capability.policy.default.Clipboard.paste", "allAccess");


to enable for specific sites
code:
user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.Clipboard.cutcopy", "allAccess");
user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.Clipboard.paste", "allAccess");
user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.sites", "SitesHere aSpaceDefinesNewSite");
user_pref("capability.policy.policynames", "allowclipboard");

I like IE6 by far; I think it looks nicer and its right in Windows.  And I prefer its image handling and browsing engine.

My favourite web Browser has to be Mozilla Firefox, merely beause of it's great skinnable interface, it's speed, it's accessability and how user friendly it is.
