Now if I could just find 3 add-ons that would make me love Firefox!

Do you use Firefox as your primary browser? If not, which browser do you use? I've been switching between Firefox and Safari lately, though the lack of searchable textareas in Safari drives me a bit mad.

I've tried Firefox, Safari, Opera and Google Chrome. They all have their advantages and disadvantages compared with IE. It comes down to which one feels right for you and what exactly you are doing. Indeed, IE is as good as anything for some purposes.

Firefox has lost its edge over the last couple years; right now all it really offers now above the latest versions of IE or Safari is much greater customization. But it comes at the price of more memory usage and frequent fugliness; Mozilla is a bloated app platform with its own toolkit and runtime environment, and looks by default like an ugly abberation on modern platforms. (Windows 7 and Vista especially).

I stick with IE 8, for this reason.
