I'm using Firefox 8. But only because the javascript on these forums doesn't work right with IE6 on my computer for some reason. :(

Actually, Ameesh, I use IE 6.0.2800.1106.xpsp2.030422-1633! Seriously, that's what the about screen says now!

And, to keep my system from coming down with the latest "Microsoft Internet worm of the week", I needed to install Service Pack 1, AND ALL of the following hotfixes JUST for IE:

Q81-847
Q818529
Q813951
Q330994
Q828145
Q832894
Q387009
Q831176

And, even after all that, I needed to install the Google Toolbar, which will block MOST of the pop-ups out there, and both Spybot Search and Destroy and AdAware to protect myself from accidental spyware infestations.

Face it, dude, Internet Explorer friggin' SUCKS. Go get a REAL web browser.

maybe because they got it right the first time ;)

Seriously, I'd rather have something like Firefox that isn't updated much than crappy IE with a new "MAJOR SECURITY HOLE, INSTALL THIS PATCH NOW" every week.

Meh, I use 1.6 final. No nightly/experimental builds for me as I don't have the time/bandwidth to constantly download them on my home dialup connection. I just feel dirty when I am forced to use IE nowadays...

Ameesh is just mad because he helped program IE and no one uses it anymore.

mozilla works a lot better than IE for me for 95% of my browsing. every now and then a plugin doesn't work though, so i still need IE.

Troll.

Mozilla has these wonderful tools (like prefbar, which makes User-Agent header spoofing easy, and livehttpheaders, which lets you view http headers on one tab while you're loading the page in another tab)

Oh, and Ethereal. Yeah, there's a POS open source tool...

And Apache.. yeah, real pile of crap there, as compared to the oh-so-wonderful IIS
