Birds!
Firebird and Thunderbird are the stand-alone versions of the Mozilla web browser and e-mail application, respectively. And they are great. I’ve just finished switching my e-mail to Thunderbird, and since yesterday I’m using nothing but Firebird for browsing. They impressed me a lot: very lightweight, very fast, and with great features. I can’t recommend them strongly enough. Don’t be scared of the 0.x version numbers, these apps are production-grade.
