And for those who stay with IE....
MySoft Technology just released an update to their Maxthon shell program for IE--Version 1.2.
I like Maxthon because the built-in AD Hunter function does a great job in blocking pop-up's, Flash animation, animated ads, etc.

Firefox can be tweaked based on your system and connection. It gets a lot faster once it tweaked.
On average, pages take 1-2 seconds to load for me.

unbiased and controlled browser-speed tests:

in windows, firefox is slower than IE6 in starting up, rendering CSS (probably because IE's CSS is incomplete and completely ****ed up), displaying history and rendering tables (by 0.15 seconds). it's faster in loading scripts and images, which is probably more important to most people, but the difference is within tenths of a second, so who really cares? edit: actually IE takes more than twice as long to load and read scripts

If you see that icon, click on it and you can set options, view the popup that was just blocked, etc. You've gotta select "Allow popups for..." for sites that you don't mind having popups from - like HAN.
