I use Safari with no Flash installed, because Flash is the number one delivery avenue for spyware, and it slows your browser considerably. Animated Flash ads are your enemy.

I keep Chrome installed for when I really need to see a flash video or other content. Flash comes built in. Maybe open it once or twice a month.
