When I used it, I just used the "Brushed" theme to get rid of the cartoony look, and the Google toolbar.
Moved onto Opera since then, faster! :nod:
is opera pretty secure to use as well ?
the black japan theme is quite nice

I don't use extensions.
I use the following:
IEview - for those pesky pages that won't load in firefox.
SessionSaver - Saves the websites that I was viewing when I close firefox
Tab x - adds an x to the tabs so I can close them
Smoothwheel - set how fast the scroll wheel goes down a page.

Yes, very, actually more so than FF because since FF has gained so much in popularity, there have been quite a few exploits that emerged for it. Opera being a smaller percentage of the market share for now..(even though gaining fast)..it's not in the eyes of the exploiters yet.
Another one gaining in popularity..K-Meleon ...based on the Gekko engine though. :(
silly question, can i have all 3 browsers installed at once, i mean will there be any conficts doing so ?

Install them all, its cool.
For extensions I use faster fox, IE View, Download Manger Tweak.
Themes I like are Noia extreme and Black Japan.

Definitely get adblock. There are a few pop unders that will get through unless you install it
