fastvfr Posted March 26, 2005 Posted March 26, 2005 Most of us here are savvy enough to have switched to a Mozilla product or MyIE2 years ago and we converted most of our friends and relatives away from IE in the years since then. However, polls show that from 80% to 85% of people still use IE to surf the web...and that is just plain dumb. This should explain why you need to switch, if you have any doubts--or if you know someone who needs extra convincing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jeremy Posted March 26, 2005 Posted March 26, 2005 A lot of people are just too lazy to get/don't know about other webbrowsers. Internet Explorer comes on Windows, so most people don't see a need to go get a different browser. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

napmaster383 Posted March 26, 2005 Posted March 26, 2005 I use Internet Explorer to update windows through windows update. I cannot use mozilla to download these updates. Also, Firefox isn't compatible with all websites. Some websites that I need to go to require Internet Explorer. I'm stuck with it for life. Why can't all websites be compatible with all browsers instead of just one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
martymcfly Posted March 26, 2005 Posted March 26, 2005 Firefox is for LOSERS! IE is awesome because it came with windows, so it must be good. Windows invented the internet and the computer so they are right. But AOL is almost as good. I have 50000 free hours because i snuck into barnes and noble and stole all the free disks. jk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the11ama Posted March 27, 2005 Posted March 27, 2005 Be careful with myIE2: it's really still IE, but with a layer on top of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CheeseMan42 Posted March 27, 2005 Posted March 27, 2005 I love Firefox. I have had little to no new spyware since I got it. Just wish I could finish getting rid of the stuff I had before I got Firefox. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

caffeinejunkie Posted March 27, 2005 Posted March 27, 2005 I just reformated yesterday. I only used IE once and I used it to d/l Firefox. I don't even use it for updates I let the autoupdater handle that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravy Posted March 27, 2005 Posted March 27, 2005 I use IE, tried Firefox, I personally don't care for the tabbed browsing, never has been a problem for me to switch between open windows using the alt-tab method, it's fast. Never had a security issue with it either, and beta 7 is/will be out soon and it promises to be more secure, so I'll stick with it until a compelling reason to change comes along.
