>i used to use opera but switched to firefox and have not looked back, although i did enjoy opera and the adds never bothered me. the only reason i use ie is for windows updates and a couple of sites that have ie only activex controls

I am currently having some trouble with the latest Opera version (9). I am considering switching back; in the meantime, I have used FireFox for a few sites, including the Universal Thread.

In Bata/Bolivia, I had recommended Opera to all users - the report preview feature of our text-and-excel-report class (similar to download #9991) uses HTML files. However, when the user zooms to more or less than 100% (feature not available in (IE!), the fixed-width font gets distorted (no longer perfectly alligned). I now found out that FireFox doesn't have this problem, so I am currently recommending FireFox to our users.

I still like Opera as a general-purpose browser (I miss the mouse gestures in FireFox), but I will have to see if I can solve my current problems.
