Attention Microsoft Internet Explorer users

[pauland]

Perhaps you should be looking at an alternative such as FireFox?

Not a complaint or such.
But at least MS shows their security issues at plain sight, http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sec...ry/961051.mspx
Same issues are in FF also,they only show something is fixed http://www.mozilla.org/security/know...firefox30.html

Fair comment.

FF? No thanks. I downloaded the fix.

[pauland]

You seem very hostile towards FF Hans.

[aridzone]

I have both on my system but use IE because it loads faster

[haakoo]

What do you mean by hostile??
I'm not against FF but dislike the self-proclaimed superiority of open-source software.
They also have issues with security and bugs.
But you never hear of them,because it isn't broad-casted,while if there's a minor glitch in ms software the whole world's on fire.
I'm not using IE directly myself,just a shell-browser around it(slimbrowser)

"FF? No thanks." didn't seem to indicate much enthusiasm!

That would amount to a lot of 'self-proclaimers'

I think it's the FF fanbois who are claiming to be superior by choosing FF.
Mozilla org just get on with it.

Personally I've attached myself to Google chrome for it's simplicity and sheer speed.
Before the advent of Chrome, Opera was my browser of choice.
(Now... If I could only switch off animated figs and flash in chrome )

Paul,The "FF no thanks" wasn't from me but the Alien.
Steve,you're right about the self-proclaiming,it's done by the fans
It was just a statement about open source software being better then payed software,which isn't in many cases,the case.
I do use chrome and find it very fast but lacking a lot of features.
Not to be promoting the flashpeak slimbrowser but it has many features to filter out animations,scripts and put sites on blacklists with just a click

The best thing I like is the group feature:
Open your news sites for example and save it as a group.
Now have the browser startup with the group and it opens up all your sites at once,you only have to tab through them.
You can have as many groups as you want.
Another great thing is the auto login.
I have the browser setup to clear the cache after closing,so every time I startup the browser all logins are lost but you can create a fav with the auto-login so you don't need to type in your user-name and password again
