Internet browsers

FireFox (Noscript, Downthemall,foxytunes and forecast fox)
Opera
Chrome

In that order. I also sandbox most of my browsing to boot.

I use an addon called NoScript for Firefox. It automatically blocks scripts from every site until you allow them. It's a pain in the beginning because it prevents java scripts, flash players, certain images etc. on all sites - but eventually when you've allowed your favorite addresses it's nice.

In other words it prevents any form of advertisements, popups, keyloggers or redirection scripts and stuff like that - all in one addon. Frequently updated too so I highly recommend it, especially if you surf around much and on many different sites. You never have to fear clicking suspicious links and so.

I'm friends with one of the main contributors to that Add-On. A few weeks ago it was in danger of being removed as a Mozilla sanctioned add-on.

I know a lot of people use it, so that would suck Very useful addon IMO

Yeah, it's popular, but the head developer acted like a prick a few weeks ago and basically started a war of words with the developer of AdBlocker Plus which literally escalated into his work, which eventually led to No Script allowing certain advertisments to go by unnoticed, but blocked legitimate sites that were associated with AdBlocker Plus.

Firefox, really user friendly and middle finger up to Bill Gates!

The best reason to use either FF or Chrome is the fact that both are open source.
