Yes, all are good browsers. I have tried out all of them. But as per my oppinion, firefox 4.6.13 is the latest and the best becayuse not only you can edit each and every customizations using about:config but also you have a wide variety of addons is well. Just try it out ! Hope this works for you :)

There is no need to limit yourself to one browser; and there is no such thing as the fastest or most secure.

Browsers are constantly being updated, mainly due to discovery of security holes which make them vulnerable to exploits.

One browser may be faster at rendering some components and others at another. Some may be more efficient at handling some things while others excel elsewhere.

It is best to have several browsers, at least have two unreleated ones , so that if a virus disables one you still have a functioning one that will let you go for help.

Additionally having more than one lets you troubleshoot site problems. If the problem exists in two unrelated browsers, you know it is probably the sites fault. If the problem exists only in one browser, then it is probably your fault, some extension, plugin, add on, toolbar, or infection at your end is causing the problem.

Google Chrome is new compared to other browsers and has a smaller user base than Firefox, so it is still less appealing to those writing exploit code, but that does not mean that they will not eventually find exploits and write code for them. Firefox went through this stage of "invulnerability" when no one was trying to find its holes , but once it became a major browser exploits popped up.

Now far more exploits are written for third party things like Flash Player, Acrobat Reade, java etc that everyone has and uses and no one ever bothers to keep updated, than for the browsers that call for them to load active content on web pages.
