Get firefox.

Not a fan.
I'm trying out Opera right now, Its pretty legit!

I actually use Opera but hear great things about firefox.

What I would say about Opera is, it's very good but seems to have trouble handling some features of websites that work well on IE. So sometimes opera makes a website look wrong.

There are also some seriously cool mouse binds on Opera that I keep discovering almost by accident. E.g. clicking the right button then the left button very fast moves the browser back to the last page. (This might happen on IE too, for all I know, but I never noticed).

I use Chrome at the moment, used to use Firefox but the browser itself kept breaking so i made the switch.

although i want to swap to Rockmelt, i'm just too lazy / not caring to do so.

If your finding FireFox running a little slow try what BFM_Jä× did for the antivirus. Turbo charged Firefox for me! Thanks Jä× :neckbeard:

On the note of random sites giving your viruses...

Given you are using firefox, install the following extensions.
Fasterfox(adblocking)
Adblock Plus(Adblocking, spam blocking, ect...)
No Script(Prevents ANY script from running without your permission, extremely helpful in preventing those annoying popups on spam sites)
I ran with these for a year and a half, never got a single popup or download prompt, never got a virus even when I visited infected sites. I installed noscript after I noticed an online comic site I visited was infected and I couldnt get out of the tab, had to terminate firefox via task manager. While that site did  eventually get moved to a different host and server, dozens of people clicked the download prompt and got infected :\
