Heads up for Internet Explorer

Came across a "How to Geek" article that has a very positive opinion on Internet Explorer 10 & 11.

The article also explains why IE 10 & 11 are actually much safer than previous versions. Malware now targets Chrome more & more because Chrome is used much more.

The article above refers to another HTG article that tells that extensions are collecting information. But that information gathering can also be disabled in some cases.

Don't know if you noticed Willy but both of those articles are from last year.

However I do rate IE11 quite highly.

@Hazelnut:

- I know !!!! But since I (still) use & like IE, I wanted to bring this to the attention of the readers of this forum. Indeed, IE 11 is much better than the previous ones (IE 8, 9 & 10)

- Tried Firefox and Chrome but didn't like those browsers too much, for a number of reasons.

- I was/am reducing the amount of emails and wanted to share these articles.

Indeed. Latest IE incarnations are not that bad. I still prefer third party browsers anyway. Keep in mind that upon the arrival of Windows 10, IE will be no more.

That's right. Internet Explorer is now called Edge... and it has a password manager

personally I thought Spartan was a better name then Edge.

Probably Edge won so they could keep the big 'E' logo.

Agreed. Spartan sounds cooler.
