OT: Stop IE

[Fyron]

Yes, actually. This solution costs money for the program though...

http://www.litepc.com/

Be aware that uninstalling IE means some functionality, such as Windows Update, will be lost.

[General Woundwort]

Even the StopIE website does not recommend full removal of IE - just that you don't use it as your browser.

[Ed Kolis]

It's probably a bad idea to try to delete IE, seeing as it's used by the Windows shell for the filesystem explorer

[Atrocities]

IE is not so evil... I use it all the time any my system has been safe and secure. I don't get why so many poeple hate IE?

Its the greatest thing since sliced bread.

[Xrati]

I didn't know that 'sliced bread' was a Microsoft product. What will Gates steal next? Ipod!!!

Um, we're communicating in binary now? But yeah, I don't really recommed IE, since when I turned the security features to full, I couldn't access anything (except microsoft.com. Strange that), and at anything less than full, I was just getting plowed with viruses and spyware, even with my firewall at full power. Firefox ftw!

Sorry. Too much time on the WoW forums.

[Strategia_In_Ultima]

It is only because I had no internet over the weekend that I didn't post this sooner, but.....

Fyron, you keep (kept) going on about w3c "standards". To my knowledge, a "standard" is something that works with the majority of some thing or other. Right now, IE has an 85%+ market share, as I inferred from other posts here, so therefore IE IS the standard. Make a website compatible with IE and you make sure over 80% of the web-browsing community can view it without problems. Sure, there are more web browsers out there - but together they can't hold a candle to IE's user base.

I'm not a fan of Microsoft myself, and I much prefer Firefox, but Fyron, you're just spewing out your blind hatred for Microsoft here. And like CW said in the first reply, don't say it's not just spewing your hatred because this entire thread has everything to do with blind hatred of the big M.
