I tried IE7. I wasn't impressed. It certainly doesn't have memory leaks, but the second I open it it's already using about 40MB of RAM. Firefox uses less than that initially, but as we all know it can greatly increase and furthermore refuses to dorp.
Opera doesn't cut it for me either, as it lacks options regarding extensions, themes, and options. However I think it's rendering engine is superior to Firefox and Internet explorer.
Furthermore I've read Firefox isn't even as secure as it's said to be. Perhaps more secure than IE6, but supposedly there are a decent amount of security holes that have gone unpatched for quite a long time. This is not the case with Opera, or so I've read. I really couldn't know for sure.
Bottom line, I feel that all browsers suck equally for various reasons. I chose Firefox only because of the wealth of extensions, search engines, themes, etc, but I wish I didn't have to be stuck with it.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
