Securitywise I'll stick with Opera

Did I say securitywise ... almost every otherwise as well - only miss addblock & flashblock ... ah well

It depends on the user. Or in other words: PEBCAK.

Well...i like Opera too, but wasn't this about IE and Firefox ???

Between them it's (still) for sure Firefox  :up:

Josh:
Have you used IE7? Heck, IE6 SP2 was pretty good on its own. I've never had anything happen to me while browsing with IE6 sp2.

Flashblock in Opera.I recommend adding the css code in the browser.css file for a permanent effect and enabling Always load javascript opera:config#UserPrefs|AlwaysLoadUserJavaScript (paste the red text in the address bar,run and tick the box).

As for adblock the new Opera 9 has that build-in (named "Content Block"), not as flexible as the Firefox equivalent as it doesn't support regular expressions but it gets the job done.Here are some generic rules to add to urlfilter.ini and here are specific ad servers also for adding in urlfilter.ini.
