That might be the emergency update we got at work last night. Just before I was logging off and had to have my computer at home! GRRRRR!!!

No, I have moved on to Google Chrome for my home laptopfor a while now. For some reasons, we are only allowed to use IE in the Office.

Yes, along with all of the others as I concurrently run multiple sessions with different email accounts and the like.

I still like some features of Firefox despite some annoyances, I use each browser in ways that their features or lack of them work for me.

Another question - is anyone still using Opera? (I do for the above reasons)

Chrome now allows you to have multiple profiles so I can run 4 instances of Chrome for 4 different email addresses / gmail / google apps accounts.

I only ever fireup IE or FF if I want to test a web site in the different browsers.

Ditto :) Been trying to get the developer I used to work with and still occasionally test for to move over to Chrome but he's having none of it. That said, pages still need to be tested in all of them :( and for numerous types of devices these days :o

I use Chrome both in the office (actually Chrome/FF & IE). IE for IRAS as they sometimes have a problem with other browsers.

But I keep FF to only open via extension through Chrome as I use it for large downloads as it seems faster than Chome. I cannot verify that though as I've not actually done any parallel downloads.
