IE die hards, you just kill me :D More than a browser, IE is designed to collect data on everything you do and say, Microsoft uses all this information for marketing purposes, I spent a good amount of time in Redman at MS back in the day when IE was being developed.  :-\
Lots of browsers to choose from out there, I like the open source brower for all the plug in gagets you can use. Happy browsing  ;)

I've used all of them, but I still use IE.  You can get in to trouble with any browser!  O0

I used Firefox on my home desktop, running Windows XP, and found that it crashed a lot.  I finally went back to IE.

Went back to IE and updated patch. Firefox is a pain in the... for someone like me who likes to have multiple windows open at one time.
