Long Live Firefox
I use Firefox almost exclusively because it is the only browser I know off that provides full support for color profiling. It also runs the Ghostery privacy add-on better than IE9.

Color Management Still Not Right on IE9
I'd like to use IE9 but its color management is not complete - at least not in the RC. IE9 RC looks at the embedded color profile in images and converts them so they all appear the same when displayed. Unfortunately it doesn't look at the monitor profile. If the images are being displayed on a wide gamut monitor images will be displayed using a common set of colors but they will all be displayed wrong. Even Windows 7 Photo Viewer gets it right. Why not IE9? Firefox does proper color management and is my default browser.
