I’m a Chrome or Opera guy but use IE on occasion when creating new web pages or a new site just to see how the pages render in IE. Microsoft could be trying to get me to upgrade to IE8 … or their product could have just died due to suckitude. Hard to tell.

The only reason people used it was because it was the first and standard thing that came out.

NOW it’s working ok but it screwed up settings for online games with a save pop-up. I do computer re-programs and find IE8 good [once tweeked] not great. However it IS very secure for the average user [the ones that keep filling up computer with spam n mal.]
The glorified graphics a left over of Vista [for sales lol]
Overall not to bad.

When I am required to use IE7 or IE8 later this year I can rest assured that at least there’s some more competition in the browser area and I can at least stop worrying about all the extra time coding for IE6 because management only uses that browser.
