Why IE? (none / 0) (#1)
by Anonymous User on Tue Jul 13, 2004 at 04:32:53 AM PDT

Because it works, it is reasonably quick and stable and all sites work in it. I've used Opera and Firefox and neither really adds anything for me. Currently I'm using IE in XP SP2 (RC2) so I get pop-up blocking. I find tabbed browsing to just be annoying: I already have a place to see multiple windows...its called the task bar. Having tabs just eats up space in the browser window. I don't have any idea what extensions are; maybe someone can explain that to me. I've locked down the security zones somewhat and always keep up with security patches.
