My only issue with firefox is memory leaks. I'm a web developer so needless to say I spend a lot of time in browsers. Firefox is great for devs, but eventually it just sits eating up a gig or ram.

I'm pretty sure that the memory leak is caused from some old netscape or mozilla code.  We were talking about it in our web programing class.

Kinglinksr, have you tried redownloading it and reinstalling?

One thing I always run into is for some reason every browser breaks.  We see it more with IE because it's what so many people run.  Normally reseting the settings to default, clearing cache and cookies, system restore to when it was working, and reinstalling from a freshly downloaded install file should do the trick.

I'll try that.  I've been needing to do that with a lot of programs (error fixing) and have come to the conclusion just to reinstall them all.  Going to make for one fun Saturday.  ;)

I personally think Opera with the default skin, layout and settings is ugly. 

So I downloade some really slick third party skins, move the buttons I want to the tool bar and tweak the settings.  It ends up looking nothing like the browser that you first download.
