Sometimes I use Opera, and I use IE if I have to. I don't like any of the other browsers mentioned except for the World Browser mentioned -- Haven't tried that one.

Anyway I use Firefox and would rather use almost anything else other than IE after experiencing IE7. Might go back to IE6 if I could find a download of it but Firefox working fine for me.

I used Mosaic before Netscape released their first Navigator (the 0.9 beta release, if I remember correctly).
Then again, I also remember using Archie and Veronica. Veronica was a rather way to play with gopher sites.

They weren't "browsers" though, at least not in the known sense of the word.

A web browser is a software application for retrieving, presenting, and traversing information resources on the World Wide Web. An information resource is identified by a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) and may be a web page, image, video, or other piece of content. Hyperlinks present in resources enable users to easily navigate their browsers to related resources.

Information browsers predate HTTP and HTML. Heck, the latter is just an SGML subset, and SGML comes from still earlier technologies.
Archie would not be a "web" browser, tho, no.
