I haven't used IE in a decade. Just a matter of preference, since Firefox offers a number of useful extentions.

It has only one purpose.

I remember the days that Google did not use redirect links to track which search results you visited. IE is less customisable than Chrome or FF - which is why the old MyIE/MyIE2/Maxthon/Maxthon2 Trident wrappers were so useful. MyIE2 was the first mainstream browser to support its own extensions, and it had tabs. Heck that was 2002 - Firefox wasn't even released until 2 years later. Chrome wasn't released until 2008. Opera wasn't too bad back in those days, but it was no match. You have to remember that Google still has a monopoly. They pay Apple, Opera, Mozilla, and Maxthon to set google.com as the default search engine - and of course it's the default in their browser - Chrome - as well. What would be best for the consumer is if they are offered a fair choice between Google/Bing/DuckDuckGo/ixquick/Yandex. There is an almost even split between IE and non-IE browsers on desktop devices, on all other devices IE is less than 5% of market-share, making 90-95% of browsers ones with the default installed search engine of Google.

The WIN/Gallup End of Year Survey 2013 found the US was perceived to be the greatest threat to world peace by a huge margin, with 24% of respondents fearful of the US followed by: 8% for Pakistan, and 6% for China. This was followed by 5% each for: Afghanistan, Iran, Israel, North Korea. -LINK "That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke (October 8, 2015 at 8:36 pm)Aractus Wrote: No it wasn't.

Of course it didn't start out that way, but the nature of the beast took over.
