    Just saw another IE9 commercial.

    Does anybody even use it anymore?

    I can't get over how hilarious it is that they used dubstep in one of their commercials.

    It's already installed.

    Thus, you don't have to do anything to get it.

    People like getting things without doing anything to get it.

    That's a matter of opinion, not fact. I personally prefer how IE looks and works, and so far have had no major issues from it.

    Ehhhhhhhhhhhhh not really.
    It's pretty damn accepted that Firefox and Chrome are indeed ten times better then Internet Explorer simple because both are capeable of so much more then IE while at the same time doing what IE does faster with less memory chew up and generally just better.

    Whether you PREFER IE or the others is a matter of opinion.
    But whether IE is better then Chrome or Firefox? Nah

    I still use IE. I have had almost the same amount of problems with GC and FF as much as IE. In the end I just didn't care anymore and just stuck with the default.

    Hopefully the competition will push IE to be better in the future.

    I can't avoid it, it's on Uni computers, the family computer, etc. Not to mention I have to use it to access my Uni emails (which is annoying to have to do the whole login process again once i've tried it in GC and failed)

    Don't think the worst. I'm not searching things that would effect my life so I'm fine with them seeing my searches. (Google/YouTube)
