Both are good, but I prefer Firefox because it's more compatible with most of the websites that I frequently visited, especially those that uses stringent IE code which Opera had trouble displaying them.
I think Opera is better, it has a lot of useful features built in, it's faster and more stable for me (Firefox ate up a ridiculous amount of RAM last time I used it). The only advantage I'd say Firefox has over Opera is the support for extensions, though a lot of the popular Firefox extensions have same/similar functionality in Opera.
I've used Opera before and I like Firefox more. Opera is like that one internet browser that wasn't very popular after a while. Besides, I don't think I'd trust Oprah to be my Internet browser, let alone tell me what the next cool trend is.
Technically Opera is better than Firefox, yet I still use Firefox.I like some of the little features Firefox has that Opera doesn't, such as the automatic spell checker feature.
Firefox I find is more efficient. It may not look quite as nice but with a skin on it that's easily remedied. The functionality of Firefox simply far surpasses Opera.
Opera hands down. It beats out every other browser in terms of properly rendering pages; has the cleanest, most unobtrusive interface - plus it's also skinable; built in Spell Check; 4 levels of Popup Blocker; save Sessions; identify as Explorer; page zoom; built in accessibility styles; widgets; they were the first to use tabs; browse mobile web pages; built in mail client. It is a little slower to start up, but pages render faster than Firefox - if you turn off the refresh delay. It also doesn't have a lot of support so while it can do anything that Firefox or Safari can do, some crappy sites will turn you away saying you need to upgrade to Explorer or Firefox. The ONLY thing where Firefox wins is it's open source and plug-ins which gives it much more capabilities than it ships with.
I'm currently rocking the Redshift variation of Firefox. I've never felt compelled to use another search engine since Firefox so I don't know much of anything about the pros or cons of Opera.
Firefox is better. Firefox has the best security, it's the fastest and it's got pretty themes. :)HyperMetaDragon
Actually they're pretty much the same when it comes to security (in terms of keeping you safe from malware and such). As far as addressing vulnerabilities is concerned, Opera's security record is better than Firefox's. However, if you're using a plugin (like Java or Flash) and that has a vulnerability that makes you susceptible to malware and viruses (as there has been in the past), the securtiy of either browser is irrelevant.
people will let you know anyway ,i'm using Opera and its so smooth and easy also you can use it download T0**3nt's ... i hope you can crack that code :P
