      I'm considering switching to Chrome as my main browser. It 
seems to work better when using Flash and loads faster. I've 
been having recent problems with Firefox though I still use it 
as my main browser. IE 8 is working fine too and it's able to 
load some pages other browsers have problems with. I don't care 
for Opera much any more.
