I have only ever used IE so not aware of any others.

Just tried GC and its way faster for playing my games

They are all from different vendors, and do the same basic thing - display web pages, but some perform faster than others, and have better features, plugins, security etc. Some badly written websites though, only run well on IE, so you need to keep it really.
I prefer Opera, with Firefox as a fallback, but I use all for cross browser testing of my websites, and providing support. A lot is down to personal choice.

Also remember, some program updates will only work with IE. I have had a few updates that would not download with FFox, but would with IE.

Use IETab 2 with Firefox and then there is no need to use Internet Explorer because any pages that only work with IE can be loaded into a Firefox tab, including windows update.

Worth taking a look at OPERA.

From memory I have IE, Opera, FF, Chrome, Flock and others (Safari Sleipnoir etc) all have their good points for different jobs on the net.
