Although I am posting with Internet Explorer right now, Mozilla Firefox is the best browser currently. It's safe, secure, and is open-source (meaning there are abundant add-ons). The next version of Internet Explorer will be much up to par, though.

I know some people like others but I Like and use Internet Exploier and have never had a problem like other 'unknowing' users clam. And no matter what they clam any other browser will NOT protect you from Malware. You need the following protection, and your own common sence when surfing the net.
I use all of the following Free software with Windows XP SP2 and Internet Explorer with MSN toolbar and the pop-up blocker turned on and have never had a single problem with my computer sense Microsoft came out with SP2. (knock on wood.) (And be sure to keep Windows and the following software Updated)
The best Anti-virus is: AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition. (www.grisoft.com)
The Best Spyware defense is: SpyBot Search and Destroy (www.spybot.info)
AND: AdAware SE (www.lavasoft.com)
AND Spyware Blaster (http://www.javacoolsoftware.info/kb/)
The best Firewall besides the one that comes with Windows is: Zone Alarm (http://www.zonelabs.com/store/content/co... or just (www.zonelabs.com) and select the FREE version.
These are all FREE and are all that are required. There is no reason to pay for this kind of software, except to give a donation to the writers if you can.
ALL the above programs are recommended and should be run on a regular basis. With some the free versions they must be run manually.
The best way to avoid getting any Malware (virus, Trojan's, spyware, etc) is to practice safe computing. Microsoft and many others have countless articles on the subject of safe computing. (something I think should be taught in schools)

There is no exactly science as to which is the best browser. But overall, I prefer Mozilla Firefox
I use currently:
Mozilla Firefox
Internet Explorer
Netscape Communicator
Mozille Thunderbird
(for website development and testing)

Like many of the previous answerers, I prefer and am currently using Mozilla Firefox. It is reasonably effective at blocking popups, allows you to open numerous browser tabs in one window, and has a useful download management utility.
