It seems like you're going by an experience you had from years ago and just need to break a bad habit (IE) now that things are different.



I was going to tell you the same thing. The new IE has been stable, fast, doesn't mem leak, design feels good to me, and our remote work application doesn't crater on IE like it does on FF or Chrome.


But the biggest IE plus for me is lots of video streaming sites from Europe require IE. So IE



It's still slower than FF and Chrome, and only really stable until the next exploit comes along. Did I mention the features you'll miss out on until MS copies them from the other browsers? The new IE is basically a copy of Firefox on the outside, but not as well done.

Ever considered dual-browsers. IE for things that haven't gotten with the times, and Firefox or even Chrome (which sucks compared to Firefox) to do everything else better and faster? I dare you to try it for a month. You'll never go back after that.

I'll never go back to FF...ever.

I've dualed with Chrome before, but having more than 1 browser is simply annoying.


*shrug*

You obviously love FF, I hate it.

You obviously hate IE, I like it.

I use Firefox at home, because I can, and IE8 at work, because that's all that's installed and we are not allowed to use any other browser (nor will the computers let us install others).

netscape 1.0



I just came across my Netscape 1.0 box (with disk) the other day! I am sure it will come in handy at some point.

But I use Firefox.
