I Like Internet Explorer Because I'm An Nostalgia Person, I Always Love To Use Old Things, Oh, Also, If You Don't Like IE8, Try IE10 Or IE11
If you got IE, do the following:
A legendary browser! Just watched an anime called "Internet Explorer" =)
If you do want to test your browser for how good it is at handling HTML5, you can always check HTML5test.com the HTML5 score for MS Internet Explorer 9 is 138 -- Chrome is at 437 :P
The new version IE 11 scores 376 points. Still not as good as others, but they finally improved.
IE Score Has Rised To 413
oh no please no aaaaaaggggggghhhhh i'm dying help me
But Seriously. This and Adobe's PDF and Flash are some of the most exploitable pieces of popular software out there.
I'm only going to update since it looks more secure than IE8, but for whatever IE9 has to bring, doesn't benefit me as a Firefox/Opera user.
The only reason that IE gets used is because many people that have Windows just know that its the "internet" and don't even know what a browser is. I have met a few people who actually prefer it. i think because its either because that's what came with the computer or they don't like installing things.
