Do you use Internet Explorer 7 ??

Care to share a couple of them? BTW According to Microsoft there will be no update to IE. IE8 will be the next update.

 

Nice way of shooting yourself in the foot!

Sure, we believe you

 

What is wrong with the two articles I gave?

 

I was refferring to the first article you gave. Though I would say that one of those articles currently doesn't seem to work and the other doesn't really come to much of a solid conclusion.

 

no I use firefox and opera

 

Pretty much flick between IE and FF, although I use IE more because Im used to it. FF is prob better though.

 

Well we agree that FF uses more memory. And some of us agree that the interface of IE is better than ff. Oh and security purposes....what are the faults with IE on that?

 

Yes, we do. I think most would say that IEs interface is most certainly not better than that of Fx and, surprisingly, I think that would come most from the recently-converted users of IE6.

To be honest, all IEs new interface comes down to is making things more complicated. As for security, IE has a history of being insecure and of not being patched in anything approaching an acceptable timescale.

 

Well the new interface is better. And I agree with you that former versions of IE lacked security features. But the latest version is all about that. I have yet to see a bug on IE7. I know there are some out there but so far none. And I spend at least 5-8 hours a day on the web.

 

guys i like to use firefox only....dont like internet explorer much,,second place goes to opera, and third for netscape.

 

I find nothing better about the new interface, except that it ensures that if I ever have a moment of madness and switch to IE I will be forced back to Fx when I can't find anything.. IE is an improvement, but Microsoft still have a horrible history of patching flaws.

 

their pataches for IE are not the best....and they were the elader so they thought they did not need to. IE7 shows that they mean business and they have competition.

Eh,

Still stuck on IE6. Browse with FF & Opera anyway. Won't upgrade to 7 since I use IE6 to see if anything I do webwise looks good in that & figure that if it looks good in IE6 then it should look good in IE7 (not sure how accurate this assumption is but so far so good when I tested this theory on IE7 browsers with stuff I would hack into working).

 

And who has the bigger market share. Who has more to patch. How much longer does it take MS to patch than some opensource guys? Basically yes there are vulnerabilities but they are being taken care of.

 

i use firefox, its the best in my opinion

 

Firefox And Safari

 

FireFox with a few add-ons make it wonderful

 

Longer. Microsoft say "Oh, well, we'll get a patch out next tuesday" whereas Mozilla say "We'll patch this immediately".
