Well I used Internet Explorer a week or two after I got my new comp (a Windows 7), then IE started slowing down so I downloaded Chrome.
Ohh, and here is a funny image that explains IE.

Almost no one here likes Explorer, the ones that do are probably insane or not too good with technology.

Nothing wrong with good ol' explorer, it's the most reliable thing Microsoft have ever produced.

Firefox is great, it's fast and open source.


Google Chrome is just a Firefox rip off to me. Never want to use it after testing the beta.

You have no idea how much of a diss you just did to Microsoft.

you = /facepalm
I lol'd. a lot.

Not only is that a huuuuuge dis to MS, but you obviously aren't old enough to remember when MS was actually good. And you obviously know very little about their full product line either. IE is actually one of the less reliable things they make, and that's mostly intentional on their part.

It was sarcasm, it's extremely hard to propel my sense of humor over a virtual world.

Computers had only really just started to come in to our homes when i was born, they were still in the MS-Dos era as well. So I'm old enough, although it's not always something to be proud of.

ooh ok. yeah it's hard to convey sarcasm. usually it helps if you end your post with "/sarcasm" or something to that effect, otherwise we'll all be gearing up to flame you :P

/sarcasm ruins the effect tho.

Although Flaming me is really not an issue, i can hold my own.

Why use Internet Explorer, when you could use Firefox?
Seriously, an open-source, better than an engine made by professionals.
Said professionals should be ashamed.

Hell, all the other major browsers trump IE in my book. Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Opera.

I liked IE I thought that it was good. It worked for everything that I needed it to do. But then I downloaded Google Chrome. And I'm never going back.

For my laptop, Google Chrome is currently the best for it, fast, easy, and customizable, not to forget the add-ons and extensions. Firefox runs too slow for my laptop(and sometimes gives errors and crashes), but it is overall the greatest of them all. And Internet Explorer, isn't my kind of browser, just doesn't fit my browser requirements.
