Why isn't there an option for AOL?

Because it's little more than a poopty AOL bloatware frontend to IE?

And I'm using Firefox.

Firefox.  Used to have to use IE6 at school, until I found a way around the program block on Firefox.

Opera.

Most of the good things about Firefox are pre-installed into Opera, so there's no need for silly add-ons. Widgets are also nice, and really, it just plain seems to render pages a bit faster. Don't ask me how, because I don't know.

Oh, and I could never find a skin I liked on Firefox. They all sucked. I love my Lix skin on Opera.

But really, they're both good browsers.

its better than you think
I really hate how I've made more than 12,000 posts here. Thankfully this swaying, moving Chandelure makes it all worth it.

It didn't have a spell check right off the bat, which disappoints me.  Also didn't work on some pages I needed at school.

huh wut

The only rendering issues I've ever had with Opera is its tendency to center some text when it's not supposed to, and that's only after refreshing. Firefox is more bound to have CSS issues...or at least, it was. I think the newest version repaired that little mess-up.

As for spell check, you've got a point. I never used Firefox's spell check myself, so it doesn't matter to me personally. I've never really had a problem with spelling.

Opera.
Firefox is too bloated and lame.
Madness, I say!

On my older computer, Opera starts in 5 seconds.
Firefox takes at least 30, sometimes up to a minute.
