    Default I've switched back to IE

    After a year or so of using Chrome, I've decided to switch back to IE9 (still in Beta). I'm impressed with the speeds and no crashes yet.

    I did like Chrome's simplicity but I multi-window and multi-tab a lot. Chrome struggled to deal with this and would regularly crash. On both my laptop and desktop, both of which are high-spec machines.

    I still use Firefox as my side browser and like it.

    What browsers are you all using?

    Default

    Firefox is still my day to day browser, with Chrome for some video stuff. Opera, Safari, and IE only for testing. I think what keeps me in FF is the add-ons, specifically Adblock and Noscript, which for all I know may be available in full for Chrome now.

    There's a psychological urge for me not to replace Firefox with Chrome. I feel at times as if my whole life revolves around Google and enough is enough.

    Has Microsoft fixed the tabs sequencing issue? In IE7 and IE8, when you launch IE and choose to Reopen Last Browsing Session, the tabs are never in the sequence that you left them. Also, there is no way to set Reopen Last Browsing Session as a default, so you must use that command after each time you relaunch IE, if you want your tabs restored (albeit not in the right order).

    Opera, which invented browser tabs, allows you to set a default so that tabs from last session are automatically opened, and they are in the correct sequence.
