Can anybody recommend a good browser that doesn't use up a lot of memory?

Firefox is a good browser, but Opera doesn't take up much space.

I'm talking about memory, not space!

And for anyone who recommends Opera:

Opera is kinda unpredictable, it just went down to 85k, and I didn't even do anything.

Yeah, Opera is kinda bad about that. Not so much when it's running, but loading it up can take about a minute sometimes.

I just never close it :P

If you need to worry about how much memory your browser uses up, its clear you need more RAM. For the best quality and not too much memory usage, just go with FF.

My goal is to be able to have lots of tabs open with the appropriate programs to design and code web pages. I ordered 1 gig of RAM the other day, but I still want a good small broswer for my secondary computer and until that RAM comes.

Get FireFox or Opera, nothing else. Firefox has only smaller memory but Opera takes up less space

MSN explorer is good if you do use MSN...

It's much easier to check your contacts and hotmail.

Mozilla uses about 40k for me, but I need a little bit lower.

Update: My RAM just came, talk about fast shipping (I only paid 3.99 for shipping). O.0

I still need a lightweight browser.

That seems to be pretty good what I need, and is using a lot less than firefox and opera. Thanks!
