When Will IE Get with The Program?

[olds]

I should be able to right click the back button and pick how far back I want to go.

? I can do that. You using IE9?

BWAHAHAHA! No, they got up on 6 but are upgrading us to 7.
I use Chrome every where else.

Oh God...IE7 was the worst browser in the history of browser-dom. It had so many security and performance problems that MS basically said "Sorry...please install IE8 as quickly as possible!:

Why wouldn't they go directly to 8?

So what you really mean is "When will IT get with the program and upgrade us to a current version of IE from this 11 yr old version."

Dude, it's only 6 years old, not 11

IE6: Released on August 27, 2001

Ur seriously still using IE6/7? Thats ridiculous but IE 9 still sucks anyway so your point remains valid. I should be able to highlight text and right click -> search with google without having to setup 'accelerators'.

That line in one of the commercials saying something like 'IE 9 will change the internet forever' is just hilarious.

 

[xanis]

lulz @ IE6/7

Umm, he said he was using IE7, which was released Oct 2006.

But yeah, why anyone would still be using an IE below 9 is mind boggling.

Well, WinXP only supports up to IE8. You can run Chrome Frame in older browsers to view more modern webpages though:

Well that's a pretty stupid complaint when you know you aren't even using there latest version.

 

[zokudu]

Strange I long click to do that. My right click does something else.:whiste:

Yeah, we still are running Windows XP at work here, but IT moved us over to Chrome last summer.

Any particular reason why? It's actually one of the fastest and most stable browsers now.

 

[Saint Nick]

Internet Explorer shits on websites anyways. Can't believe it is still relevant.

 

[GT1999]

I prefer IE9 > Chrome > Firefox .. still stuck in XP at work though so I use Chrome for almost everything.

Though FireFox tends to have better compatibility than Chrome. Chrome tends to load faster for me.

 

[Exterous]

Yes - how dare their 6 year old programs not act like current programs!

 

[dank69]

IE has been bundled with the Windows program since like 1995 or something.
