    I use Internet Explorer on Windows Vista , according to Google home page, chrome is much faster, is this true ?,
    always need a little bit more speed on my system - any payoffs for this free browser ?
    cheers

    u could just try it and see for yourself.
    anything is better than internet explorer though.

    safari is supposed to be fast also. might be worth downloading too.

    Shar give it a try and see. If you don't like it uninstall it.
    I find Firefox good and faster than IE. Anything other than IE is a lot safer.

    I find safari the fastest, but still prefer Firefox.
    Chrome is still crammed full of annoying bugs and lacks the add ons I need.

    I was looking at a relative's computer today and they had tried to upgrade from IE7 to IE8 but something went wrong and now they don't have IE working at all. Is it possible to download Firefox without IE working ?

    Do it on another pc & save it to a cd or usb key

    ...And according to Mozilla, Firefox is the best, while according to Microsoft, IE is the best.

    after a few days no real complaints with Chrome, definitly much faster than IE, some sites such as MySpace don't work without updates - but I'm pleased overall
