    Which internet browser cashes more frequently in your computer? :D
    Share your experience here.

    Don't forget to add these details.
    1. Browser names and versions
    2. Operating System
    3. Amount of RAM you have in your system + System Specs if you like
    4. Details about your usage with specific browser.

    So to start with my experience...

    1. I have Firefox, Internet Explorer, Chrome, Opera and Safari all in latest versions.
    2. I am on Windows XP SP3 and Windows 7 (64bit)
    3. I have 4GB of RAM with Intel Core2Quad 2.83GHz CPU with latest drivers for all the components.
    4. I use firefox and IE mostly with lot of tabs open and with few common browser addons. And i have tested them with/without any addons + with/without aero themes which needs hardware acceleration.

    So herez my list. Most crashed first.

    1. FireFox 3.6 (32bit) and Firefox-3.7a3pre (64bit)
    2. Google Chrome (32bit)
    3. Internet Explorer 8 (32bit)
    4. Opera 10
    5. Internet Explorer 8 (64bit)

    *64bit versions have no Flash support

    shocked to see Firefox performs so badly? Yes it is at least with my usage.
    So let us know your experience about browsers... :D

    I have installed
    IE7
    chrome 4.1.249.1036 (41514) and
    Firefox 3.5.8

    Most often using chrome for everyday browsing (bz it is speed,light and simple)
    it rarely crashes
    firefox and IE7 for downloading some contents and some other things
    before chrome i used IE7 and i think IE7 crash more often than chrome and it is slow too

    my specs
    intel pentium d 3.4ghz,2gb ram @667mhz
    os - windows xp sp3 (32bit)

    most crashes
    IE7 > firefox > chrome

    Hey you mean when we are using Elakiri? ;)
    Hmmm..yes for me Firefox gets stuck...3.6 version mostly...
    Google Chrome (latest) is okay but sometimes gets slow to load after viewing lots of pages....
    IE7/8 is okay...it is nice...clear....but not so fast
    Only 32 bit..

    PC Specs are high...but not very high...

    Normally with 10 or 15 tabs open Elakiri gets slower than other sites...

    :)

    i tried IE 8
    but it didn't impress me (may be later)
    and lot of people saying that firefox 3.6 is not stable as 3.5
    thats y i didn't update it

    Well 3.5 and 3.6 both crash more often. I wanna switch to a 64bit browser. But still Adobe has no flash player for 64bit

    Now IE 9 available for testing too.
