I use both Firefox and Safari.

Firefox is my primary browser, mainly because of FlashBlock.  Besides  
blocking Flash ads, it's nice to know I can open a YouTube link and  
not have it start playing automatically.

Another thing I prefer about Firefox is that it keeps its Window menu  
in the order I opened windows rather than alphabetically.  I rarely  
remember window titles, and I find it easier to find the window I want  
based on how recently I opened it.  One thing I'd like would be an  
option to have the menu be reverse-chronological, so I could more  
quickly mouse to the most recent windows.  I routinely have at least a  
couple dozen windows open at once.

I do use Safari, mostly when I do want Flash to work unimpeded (like  
for Hulu.com) or when I want to copy something from a web page as rich  
text, with images and hyperlinks intact.
