I don't understand why one would use a single web browser for everything. I don't have any evidence to prove its effectiveness, but the following combination has been pretty good for me and I've used it for years:

Firefox with NoScript/Ghostery for e-commerce and article/blog reading. I have a selection of unblocked websites.

Vanilla Safari for banking.

Vanilla Chrome for anything that would require a lot of unblocking in FF.

This means that at any time I can have three browsers opened with multiple tabs each. I never seem to have any problem.
