I use it mainly for its extensibility and security.
In my experience, IE7 takes forever to load. I don't expect IE8 to be much better.
I have not tried Chrome, because I am giving it a 365 day waiting period. I will probably try it later this year.

Hey ScHwErV, how about using the HOSTS file to block the nasties?I agree with Troy. I've been using IE8 far more than I ever used IE6 or IE7. It's still not my default browser, but only because I've been spoiled by adblock. If I'm surfing sites that I know and that I visit frequently, I usually use IE8 now.
On my machine, its faster than FF. Compatibility mode works very well, and I love the accelerators.
If I could get adblock to work in IE8, I wouldn't use FireFox at all.
So, I installed Firefox on the laptop last night...WOW...what a difference!
+1 !!!my favorite would be the FF Google search page! Woo!.
