I am using Mozilla Firefox now-a-days.

I am not using IE from the past 3 years

I don't understand why IE is still a default windows browser. No one like it.

Chrome, Opera or Firefox are all better, faster, nicer then IE.

Only when my other browsers are busy)

When the daily stats to the sites we manage are downloaded IE is still the number one browser with FF a second, then Chrome, Opera and Safari.

We all use Seamonkey.

No more Internet explorer! Love to use Google chrome very simple and fast browser. Love its all tools.

Not now, i was using when i was using modem connection...
i mean in 90's series.

According to the statistics that I saw on w3schools.com, 14.3% use IE as of January 2013.
W3Counter says that as of February 2013, 26.6% use IE

IE9 is far past the security issues of the old IE5, 6, and 7. Improvement started around IE7 many of the problems with rendering, compatability had been fixed or eliminated. Far better security has been implemented in IE8, 9 & 10.

Personally I have found that Firefox is too busy with add ons that confuse or don't give a proper explanation of their function - and some counter-act each other. I do think its good for web developers with their implementation of tools but not my cup of tea.

Chrome is becoming my favorite. I haven't been using it that long but I find it easier to learn than Firefox and IE. The speed is faster than the others and it renders pages with seemingly better or crisper resolution and faster. The only thing that bothers me about Chrome is there's no decent toolbar yet. hopefully in time.

I also think these browsers have just as many security issues as the next. I actually get more viruses or malware incidents with Firefox then I have with the other two.

However, the bottom line is to this day a lot of countries are still using older versions of Windows and browsers. So if you want your site to reach the largest audience then you must at least make sure that your sites are usable (compatible) and functionable with older versions of Windows and IE. This may mean giving up some of those fancy flash visuals that many of the big companies use on their sites which in my opinion create a lot of issues with usability and navigation - and thats even with Windows 7.

I'm mostly a Mac user so I stick with Safari. But on my Windows work computer, I switched over to Chrome. Internet Explorer is just so slow and bloated.

i must say Old is Gold ....because IE helps me a lot in Dir work

you mean you and a friend?

Recently IE launched IE10 which is amazing and support many features and is faster than any other browser.

And according to MS CSS 2/2.1 is finally fully supported.

And only two years after it reached recommended status.

I used to use it, almost 10 years ago. Now I am using Chrome, much better, faster and safe of course.

I don't even remember when I left using IE...Ya but I have to agree that I use IE when I format my system so to install chrome I have to use IE..:P
So, I mostly use Chrome.
