DuckDuckGo, but half the time I use the "bang" keywords to specifically use another site. I like the simple page layout, that they don't track people and that it does what I ask without trying to guess what I really mean. I don't know how it compares to Google, but most of the time I find what I want in the first page of links, so it's good enough for me.
My biggest complaint is that it doesn't index many forums and mailing lists, so it can be difficult to find answers for really specific questions. It does look at StackOverflow, but there's a number of communities (Linux users, some niche language developers, etc.) that don't use StackOverflow much. In that case I'll often use "!g" to get Google results.
