Well, if you're not in IT or have an interest in technology, I suspect you'll use the browser that comes with your OS. That said, I agree that IE is the biggest piece of shit browser available.

For those who haven't switched already....

Download Firefox

I dunno, most non-techie people I meet use opera or firefox as well. They just don't know the plugins. But europe has like a much higher rate of using non-IE browsers

I use Mozilla as well folks, no need to be dicks about it, just trying to help those who might not.

i use mostly IE as I have to test the websites we work on it first and foremost and tbh I never had problems with stolen passwords, hacks, etc. and I am online all the time.

then again, I don't go to gaming forums, or shady places either ... and I use Safari for porn

I personally use IE the majority of the time. I find it to be much faster.

As many holes as there are in it, the only reason I even mentioned it was because this particular security issue seemed to be a cut above the normal warnings that get posted out there, that's all. Ironically, I just received the Windows Update with the IE security patch to fix the problem as well (though I'm sure it isn't adequate on many levels).

the new IE 8 really annoys me ... lots of lockups.

on the other hand the Safari 4 Beta is one amazing new browser so far. You have to check it out for yourself.

This thread is nerd central. When Ken is kicking in doors or Tully is kicking in teeth, do you think they care what browser they're using back at the house? Fuck no

 

[dorian gray]

Just kidding. You nerds are always helping me with my tech questions and I love you dearly.

That is all.

ps: I like performing cunnilingus
