One year old laptop came with IE and didn't come up with a reason to change that yet.

Was using Firefox on my previous one which had no issues that IE had.

That really shouldn't be. I been using it since you had to pay for it (I won a license) and I find it faster than the others. Firefox comes close to Opera in its functions but thats just cause they copy Opera really...But the new 10.5 is fast right out of the box, and you dont have configure much to get it to work like the others unlike in the past, but still a lot of fun to tinker with.

Hey Boys,

I currently & have always used Internet Explorer. Quite honestly, I dont know how the others could be better, faster, more efficient then this one. Also, if they are free to put on the computer, then maybe I might change my mind lol.

i tried chrome and it gave me alot of trouble, especially when checking my yahoo mail

i would click on inbox or sent mail or check mail, and it would go somewhere else

i just uninstalled it and tried re-installing. was wondering if i downloaded the wrong one, since im on windows 7, but they just have one option for all windows, so im gonna try it again
