On windows7 i use Firefox because of addons like HTTPS everywhere, firebug, http headers, hack bar, etc. really makes website vulns a piece of cake (though i've only used them for SO's challenges :P )
On *nix ive been using Chromium, a chrome spin off for *nix (or maybe just debian? idk) . It's fast, it's amazing, and its sexy lol. My only problem is that it doesn't load facebook, so i use iceweasel for facebook and chromium for everything else :)

Chromium is available on every linux distro. You can fx get it in Ubuntu software center. Actually do Google Chrome draw it source code from chromium. They are pretty much the same but there are a few differences.

Im on Ubuntu 12.04 and Im using Opera!!!
It is the best web browser I have ever used. I used to use chrome, but I switched to firefox.
I liked firefox but it felt kind of heavy. I don't know how to explain it.
I started to use Opera and it is awesome, it seems "light weight", it looks and feels nice.
I think this browser tops them all but doesn't get enough attention.

Firefox Nightly, due to the addons.

Unix based OS.

Update:
Chrome Canary, speed and sync.

Slightly off topic, how has 12.04 worked out for you?

It's perfect.
It is the LTS edition, so it's very stable.
To be honest, Im a unity convert. I couldn't go on without compiz.
So I use unity and compiz, I can't tell you about Gnome...
But the OS is great, I like it, their doing some really nice stuff with Ubuntu.
Apparently, certain web pages can interact with the HUD which is pretty cool, however I havent tried it out yet.
