I use Galeon 1.3.14a here. It's unfortunately the best web browser (there are
some truely nice features), or perhaps I should say the web browser that sucks 
the least.

In general it seems that GTK 2+ has deteriorated a lot compare to 1.x when it
comes to real standards complience. With GTK/Gnome 2+ they've instead started
to invent their own "standards", which means there's lots of GTK 2+ programs
that work poorly under Ion. Especially focus issues are very common in my 
experience, for multi-window applications. That is, the application/gtk thinks a
different window is active than the one that actually IS active.

Not to mention the huge detoriation in efficiency. GTK2 is magnitudes slower 
than 1.x...
