Chrome, because it cuts the crap, and gives you an address bar & tabs. That's all you need. he address bar is also a mini-Google. Also, you get a very wide view of the page due to no extra toolbars.

Plus, it's fast.

Chrome.

I don't agree Explorer is fast, it's horribly slow imo.

Hmm, weren't all browsers used to having many, ridiculous rows of never-used buttons and stuff, taking space from the websites, until some time after Chrome?
It looks like Internet Explorer 9 or whatever version it is, and apparently also FireFox are really just copying Chrome.

Your Firefox - 67 pixels
My Chrome - 60 pixels

EDIT: And now it's zero pixel, because I'm in full screen.

I have like 2 Hidden Toolbars i never use. There is nothing but a search bar and tabs on my Internet Explorer. Internet explorer still has those buttons, and so does Firefox. i just choose to disable them unlike all those shopping moms.
I know it is possible to do in the new versions of IE.
There's another reason why it is space inefficient - it keeps the window line at the top unused for tabs or anything, but only lets it have those three window buttons.
I see it also has an option for the favorite bar, which is designed like Chrome's bookmark bar. But back when I changed to Chrome one of the reasons was because of the ridiculous sidebar for bookmarks, taking a lot of the website space.
They may have improved what made me change to Chrome, but I wouldn't bother coming back, simply because I've gotten used to the look of Chrome. And Chrome is still noticeably faster.

Your screen size might be different.
Computers may have different speeds, therefore, the speed of a browser doesn't matter. Or what? :P

Well, Firefox 7.1 has a nice Bookmarks location.
Imo it's terrible. Having to open a menu, then go to a bar inside the menu to get your bookmarks.
In Chrome I have them fixed in folders in a line below the URL bar. But I assume Firefox can do that as well.

Chrome all the way! Firefox is good, but it's very often laggy and very prone to breaking it's scripts when I'm doing multiple things.

I like to use the FiahOwl Internet Web Browser.

It is the superior Internet Web Browser for the True World Wide Web Surfing Experience.
