- Built-in pop-up blocking (must have)
- ability to use custom CSS's to modify all webpages (ie: get rid of ads, must have)
- Tabbed browsing (must have)
- Fast loading/rendering time (on par with Safari's)
- cookie management (ie: decide to accept/decline for each site)
- cache management (determining how often browser goes to cache instead of reloading the page)

I've been seeing a lot of conversations about different browsers; Camino, Mozilla, Firebird, Safari..... Right now I've got no clue as to which would be the best.

I've used IE... it sucks. On OS 9 I used Mozilla, but it was slow in rendering. Right now I'm using Safari and I like it, but it has zero cookie/cache management and doesn't always load the newest version of a webpage.

Edit: I'm currently running OS 10.3.1

- Cup holder (must have)

How many times did I have a cup in my hand while browsing and I couldn't set it anywhere...a cup holder would have been nice.

Mozilla on OS X is actually really good. Bloated (takes a while to launch), but loads pages very quickly, has more options than you can poke a stick at, and is very, very stable.

And almost all those features are availabe in FireBird, which isn't as bloated and has a nice OS X theme.

If you need a wealth of features, FireBird (or Mozilla) is the way to go. Try firing it up and type about:config into the toolbar. Then try going to FireBird Extensions to check out all the cool customization you can do.
