    I would use Firefox if I wasn't already using Avant Browser. I really like this thing. Everything is pretty self-explainatory, there isn't anything overly fancy, it runs the IE shell but doesn't give me any of the troubles of it, and you can open as many child windows as you want, the same as Firefox.

    Good for me. =P

    IE fanboys is considered an insult? If so, that was not my intention. Perhaps I should just keep it as "IE users" then.

    Seems you didn't actually test the browser
    I swear I did! But then again, maybe I was using Opera or some other half-rate IE clone. =D

    Anyway, thanks for the answer. I guess I'll download it right now.

    Amen.
    And yes, there's not much to ponder. If you don't like it(which means: if you don't try it out for more than one day), it's not like you uninstalled IE so you can go back to it. But believe me, that won't be the case.
