Opera vs. Chrome and Mozilla

[maximianusherculius]

So what is the deal with Opera? I only recently heard of it. In what way is it more advantageous than Chrome or Mozilla, if at all?

Firefox.

It's just a browser,you can keep it or not cause it's not like having 2 av programs.They don't conflict with each other.

Its personal choice I think, whatever you feel comfortable using. I did do a brief spell using Opera just because it had a built in mail client and needed to keep up with emails at the time more then normal, however it doesn't stack up against Firefox with Add ons for me.

FireFox is the best for me.

[malwaredestroyer]

chrome for me.

I used Opera for a while, it was good, but I prefer to use Firefox, for all of the security add-ons.

If you're concerned about the Firefox memory leak problem, use Flock. It's a version of firefox with the memory leak fixed, and you can still use most of the add-ons.

Yeah, I like Firefox for security but I like Chrome for raw speed and simplicity. I have never tried Opera.

I have Opera (Unite) installed on Linux Mint, at home.

I feel that Opera is a different kind of browser. It has BitTorrent and Email client built-in.
Did you see the 10.50 on lifehacker - it has an all-transparent theme.

(I think):
- Opera cannot installed addons, which makes it less vunerable.
- Less security holes.

I love firefox 3.7 (alpha). It's as fast as chrome and is compatible with all my addons.
