Oh yes, there are more ... the one that immediately comes to mind is Opera ...

But wikipedia has a more updated list ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_web_browsers

There are literally hundreds of web browsers in use, from the more popular ones you've mentioned to little-known ones that probably only several hundred use. Here's an extensive, but by no means complete, list of web browsers from Wikipedia.

// edit - lol, you beat me to it, RT :P

Can a mod delete this now redundant post?

I don't know if it's necessary to delete ... it just shows that with popular search engines etc you can find what you want ...

Not really.
It would blow a huge opensource licensing hole into their business model.

Now if Microsoft could get the bigwigs at Mozilla to play ball by Microsofts rules, it would be a different story.

Just thought I'd add that the only other one to develop for that you missed is Opera.

Now, there's Google Chrome.I don't know what's the look of it but later i will download it to check if there are bugs or if it's user-friendly.

I actually just heard of this a few days ago - downloaded the program but have yet to use it.
I've heard good things, but I've also heard it's no FF.

Yeah, it's definitely not Firefox. Not in my opinion.
