I'm on Fire Fox but I used to be able to switch back and forth but now I cant. I'm having trouble deleting an anti virus program to replace it with another but I can't, this thing won't let me. I wanted to download Evidence Nuker but I can't because I'm asked if I'm connected with internet (which I am with fire fox) and it says that it can't make a connection (to register) I can't download my new anti virus neither..........getting angry wont help so I'm asking for help....

People have gone to a lot of trouble to create standards for website coding so that our experience as users of the Internet as well as developers is as good as it can be, and then Microsoft doesn't comply. It is insane. It is very frustrating to have a web component that is fantastic and it shows up on all other browsers but does not work on IE. Those of you using IE, probably don't even know that on the occasions that you think a web site is screwed up it is probably the fault of your browser. why should we have to get use to something that is ridiculous.

It's a waste of time and money. The slow backlash against IE has forced MS to finally start moving towards compliance. Not to mention many users have switched to better browsers anyway. So the time, money, and effort spent tweaking and hacking sites to work with ass backwards IE will have been a complete waste of time. No more, I'm done with IE like so many other developers I know. We write for the web, the standard... NOT for IE. Many of us have “gotten used to it”, but now we must stop. It’s a waste of time and money.

And while I haven't switched to Firefox for personal use, I can say I have few problems actually using IE. Maybe my online experience would be better, but to date I've had few problems. By the way, I've been online in one form or another since 1983 when a few BBS's were available, and there were some (expensive) internet communication and forum services available. In other words, the age when humans first learned to walk on the savannahs of cyberspace.

Its very annoying when your website needs tweaking to suit IE but its something we all have to get used to true IE is the least compatible when it comes to programming but its the most common browser so unfortunately it cant be ignored.
