Some people might interpret this as you saying that you had developed firepup all by yourself!

Sorry about that, My mistake, FirePup is based on firefox, with a lot of changes added to it. The end result was a more stable and faster version of Firefox.

No love for Kazehakase?

Kazehakase seems really interesting, plus small and fast.

But i don't think it is petted yet.

I voted for seamonkey, but i'd like Firepup instead (changed my mind) I do agree to what Nutts4life said, websites must recognize Firepup as 3.0, it is really annoying otherwize.

I vote for Firepup.On my installation of 3.01, Firepup is faster and more stable than Seamonkey or Opera.

Opera any day..
don't understand the thing with seamonkey though..

No opera for me..i vote for firefox/firepup,..but, another point is the size of not only browser, but plus html editor and email..any other can defeat seamonkey suit?

Yes!
Opera = browser + source editor(html) + email client + irc + torrent !!

I'm for Opera 10 once it gets out of Alphas, it finally has inline spellchecking

Maybe the new Netsurf 2.0 will be good though.
Dillo is supposed to have some partial CSS support next release too

All that can be done smaller than Seamonkey on Firefox, but you there are pro's and cons about everything, Firefox has some really great plugins

WYSIWYG
Xinha Here
http://www.hypercubed.com/projects/firefox/

Codetch
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1002/

FTP
FireFTP
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/684

Email
Simple Mail
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5593

Chat
Chatzilla
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/16

RSS
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/424 (plus lite version)

Torrent
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4844

Using these addons and replacing seamonkey suite, would save around 2MB compressed maybe a bit more. But the con about these are that simple mail isn't as good as SeaMonkey mail, but the pros is that they auto update and would be way more secure than Seamonkeys past track record of slow security updates. Plus Firefox updates 10-1 compared to Seamonkey, but lately Seamonkey has been releasing a heck of a lot of updates, but how long will it last?

I also made a patch last week to lower the tabs on opera 10, So they are below the nav buttons, which made it more natural feeling
Its too bad the preferences don't let you do that.

Not got a particular favourite. Opera 10 is loads better than previous versions, but it is still a bit slow at loading pages. Actually sometimes it is still very slow (this forum for instance), and font sizes can be tiny for no good reason. Apart from that it's ok...
Firepup is good (using it now) - but can't stand that constipated-mutant-Pudsy-from-hell icon.

Hey thats my borg-puppy icon lol
just change the icon, go to user/share/applications/firepup.desktop and right click on it and where it says icon, just change the location to some other icon and that will fix your menu icon
to fix your desktop icon, just right click on the icon and select 'File Browse' Set icon and then drop a icon in the popup box and then you should be good

@Ttuuxxx

Not sure I should touch it. Looking a bit meaner at the moment. I think I've upset it!
