My Personal Top Web Browser: Google Chrome
I've used all of the browsers listed above and found that Google Chrome takes the prize in this war. Its sleek and simple interface really proves itself to be simple to use and sticks to its purpose -- surf the Internet. I found that I was having trouble with other browsers such as Internet Explorer and Firefox with constant crashes and always having to force close the browsers. Chrome is fast (fastest boot up speed when opened) and light on the computer's memory usage. I will admit that Internet Explorer has made a significant upgrade in their recent versions (IE7 brings back horrible memories for everyone), but doesn't really compare to the simplicity of Chrome.
