I HONESTLY DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY SOME PEOPLE ARE STILL USING IE. IT'S BECOME SO OUTDATED. THERE ARE A LOT OF WEBSITE THAT REQUIRE EITHER FIREFOX OR SAFARI. IF YOU TRY USING IE YOU'RE SHIT OUT OF LUCK.


Maybe because MS still owns something like 80% of the desktop market?

On the topic of IE, IE 7 is light years ahead of IE 6 as far as standards compliance are concerned. But since your all on Macs, I guess you wouldn't know that.


I've been a pc user every day of my life since 1994, and IE has blown cheese since the day it hit the market. The only reason I ever used it was because Netscape couldn't compete and another viable product didn't come out until Opera, shortly thereafter killed by the much better FireFox. I'll never use IE voluntarily again. Any browser that requires a minimum of 5 mouse-clicks in this day and age to clear my browsing history should be used as a boat anchor.
