Opera. Chrome has frame rate issues as it's quite CPU intensive and IE is just plain crap. Not tried Firefox though.

Firefox/opera, just smoother even at higher pings than Chrome/IE.

IE is just crap.

Firefox and Opera are about the best(although I use Firefox, myself). They handle flash a lot better than Chrome & IE and the result is a much smoother framerate and less parkinsons disease when it's pingy.


It's strange, too ... when I host on Firefox, Aero can connect to me, but when I tried hosting on Chrome he couldn't. What's that about?

For some reason, it's smoother on Chrome for me than Opera. Ping is better too. Gonna have to try firefox now.

I use Chrome. I've tried Opera and the frame rate's awful. Always stuttering. Firefox and IE have no difference to Chrome for me, and as Chrome is my everyday browser, I use that.

Chrome here too, firefox used to have better support (that circle around your puck didn't appear on chrome), but now it's the same.

Have anyone tried Safari?

I personally use Firefox (3.6.27, old version) not the new one.
Firefox and opera would be ideal. Chrome? Why not.
Down to personal preference mainly but if you're running on a crappy spec laptop/pc you need one that doesn't chew up all the cpu/ram. Most browsers handle flash well.
Then there's IE...If you are using it, just don't tell anyone. Say you're using safari instead 8-) lol

I've found Chrome better than either Firefox or IE. On my prehistoric machine.
