I use Opera 10, Safari or Chrome or IE8 or Prism when I am not in a browser from those I am working on at aule-browsers.com
Opera has the smallest footprint at startup on my XP box ( I use Epiphany on linux) and I stopped using Firefox when it began to choke and bloat on my large set of bookmarks. Opera behaves well on a few sites where IE8 misbehaves and vice-versa. When all else fails I turn to Chrome or Safari (Opera is also the only one that passes w3c Acid3 on this box - but Safari does warm the room with its updates.)
Here are 4 other Windows browsers that you might want to consider:
Avant at http://www.avantbrowser.com/
TheWorld at http://www.ioage.com/en/index.htm
Wyzo 3 at http://www.wyzo.com/
SlimBrowser at http://www.flashpeak.com/sbrowser/
The latter offers to build your site-specific browser, so I will be happy to submit a competitive bid if that is your need!

Site-specific Browsers in Curl for sensitive content
Over at the Logiquewerks home page there are new links and pages for the topic of SSB's (site-specific browsers) implemented in Curl.
One type of browser that we are exploring is a Rich Internet Client for viewing confidential, "eyes-only", content which we call our "Eyes-Only Web Content Viewer"
At the moment there is a bare-bones demo for an Evernote SSB and a more complete prototype for an "Eyes-Only" browser with a "controller" which prevents copying or screen-snapshots unlike the "privacy" modes now in some browsers. Unlike Mozilla Prism, these Curl SSB's can be declared at the time of request of the content from the server to have whatever widgets are useful for task, such as annotating bids or signalling rejection. One use we are exploring is using the "eye-only browser" for code-reviews of proprietary code in software development - such as code developed off-shore where the ISP does not have in-house expertise to assess the vendor code.
All are intended for enterprise use in Internet Explorer only. The only requirement is the Curl RTE: no JavaScript or other plugins.
