The thing i hate is i can only go on to windowsupdate.com using IE talk about trying to dominate the industry you can't update microsoft windows if you aren't using a microsoft browser.
 
There was a link to yahoo news on that, dunno if you clicked it, but they do say use something other than IE as IE is not secure enough.
 
There are alternatives to make browsing reasonably secure like having a popup blocker, spyware blocker/finder and virus scanner rather than getting a different browser... At least for me it seems to be okay.
 
I have a compiled copy of lynx on my desktop. Good for investigating links spammers post without being in for a shock. BTW, the poll should've been multi-choice. (oh, and there's also Mosaic, too! ;)).
 
I tried lynx the other day ....

interesting

Well duh...Windows Updates uses ActiveX which is only available in IE...I think that's the only way a site can get information about your computer from you. Crucial (RAM memory place) uses ActiveX to identify your computer and what RAM you need, PCPitstop (diagnosis place) uses ActiveX to run some tests, and other sites too.
 
Before 02:00 EST today I was using Avant browser. Decided to give MyIE2 a try, because of the annoying avantfind page you get when a page doesn't load right. Have growing pains with MyIE2 now, but it looks okay so far.

I've used Netscape, Opera and Firefox. I prefer the IE-Core browsers myself. Just didn't like the others.
