I've come across countless posts about this, and hopefully this thread will help us get rid of the looming myth.

In my opinion, and please jump in with your own, there simply is no proof that the brower has anything to do with results. You'll find that when you search using Firefox, and then do the same search using IE, you'll probably get different results.

The reason for this is simply that Google uses MANY datacenters and your browser is taking a "snapshot" of the results and saving it in the cache. When you come back to Google using the same browser and search for the same thing you'll most likely see the same results. Clear your cache and you'll most likely get different results.

This is why you get different results using different browsers.

Hope this helps!
