Getting my new PC this week, thank god, this things driving me nuts.  Anyway in a bid to keep as much crud off it as possible I've decided I'm going to be a bit selective as to what I use it for. (No more porn sites then  ) When it comes to browsers I've decided I definately ain't going to be using IE7 or any other IE for that matter. Which narrows the choice to a few well known favourites. Firefox... has quite a lot of rubbish creeping into it. Found that out with a Spybot scan.  So does anyone have any experience with Opera, Safari or Netscape? These seem quite popular.  |

Yes. You're right about Safari. Mac only. So that's one discounted. I found out that Netscape was taken over by AOL, so that's another out the window. Think I'll give Opera a little try for a couple of days. But Firefox is looking favourite at the moment. Looks like I'll have to find a good spyware blocker. |

Although my scans find things that have got thru Firefox, they are all targetted at IE and so not a problem. |

You do know that Opera is a non-free browser - you either pay for it or get adverts slowing it down Netscape on-line has been taken over by AOL, the browser and browser development itself has not been. But Firefox surpasses it |
