Internet Explorer 6
Does anyone still use this shitty ass excuse for a browser? If you do, why? Do you like spyware on your computer?
Web developers everywhere hate IE with a passion. If they don't, it's because they are horrible programmers and can only do things with tools M$ provides. It's been too long that we demands compliance to standards and it still isn't happening. IE7 is a *little* better... but if you are still using IE6, I hate you.

I'm having fun with CSS2 selectors and it's a shame I can't use them on SEN everywhere because of crappy browsers.

If people want to use IE6 instead of the various different browsers, then let them.. Let them "reap the benifits" of IE6 if they want.

I'm using Internet Explorer 6 lol. I'm using it because I'm not used to any other browsers such as firefox. Is there an Internet Explorer 7?



None.

IE7 is no real better. It offers the PNG support and fixes some CSS glitches. Overall, they've added actually nothing for developers, just fixed the bugs that they should of years ago and sadly called it a new version.

Thats no excuse. You'd gladly upgrade to the next version of anything that says "Internet Explorer" but never give anything else a chance? Comeon.

I learnt that the only thing IE7 or IE6 is good for is a second browser strictly for browsing.i like opera cause its easy to use and has tons of xtras.Also Opera is easy to mess with I got this cool skin on the border thats just plain cool.

If not running at least XP, it is not possible to upgrade to Internet Explorer 7, I think.

Hmmm... shadowflare is right.

Requirements:

Operating System::
Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) Windows XP Professional x64 Edition Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 (SP1)

I think if you don't have XP, you'd have even more reason to change browsers.
I only use internet explorer to browser microsoft's update site (optional updates). And I only do that because I'm making the assumption it is relatively safe to open IE for that purpose. Actually, I lied. I use it to open up SEN to see how horrible it looks.

It is a free download off of the microsoft website. I use firefox personally, and I think its features are just fine for me.

I use IE6 if I need to use IE, but that is rare and I use Fx for all of my browsing.
