IE sucks very much. Chrome is very good and user friendly but crashes when you open a large number of tabs and windows. Firefox is good as well and not crashes.
I have been using Firefox for a very long time when it started working really slow, having a lot of mistakes and breaks. So I went to Chrome and now using Google Plus and all that stuff it goes better, faster and more comfortable. But still I can`t get used to it. Can`t say properly what is wrong. May be worked too long in Firefox.
Google Chrome, love the way that each tab is launched as separate process which, in case of one tab crash, wouldn't kill all other tabs.
Google Chrome is best for browsing but Mozila Firefox have many tool/addons mostly it use for web development, seo etc and provide beautiful features.. So I think Mozila firefox is better than chrome and IE8.
