Normally, I always use Firefox, but for a few specific applications (our corporate ordering system is one example) I'm forced to use Internet Explorer. I really notice the difference.
I use the IE tab plugin for most annoying apps like that, but some truly require IE. Sigh.
The best feature I have configured in Firefox is the middle mouse button opens links in new tabs without changing the focus from the current tab... so I often find myself middle-clicking every image in a thread, and while allowing them to load in the background, finish reading the thread. Of course, I also middle-click every thread in the "view new posts" view here, so I end up with several rows of multicolored tabs that indicate how long they've sat unread, and whether they've been viewed at all. I've also got "Tiny Menu" so that I can cram everything into one row... you really need to see a screenshot to appreciate my tab customizations.
The key plugins are tab mix plus, tiny menu, aging tabs, ie tab, forecastfox... gotta love this browser.
