Is it true that IE are the worst browser? Ive heard all the bad stuff about it from people. Maybe i should do the switch to Firefox
Is it true that IE are the worst browser?
There is no such thing as a safe browser.
IE is no worse than Firefox and Firefox has its vulnerabilities.
- Install SpywareBlaster and update it regularly http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html
- Use an anti virus application like avast! or Avira AntiVir plus keep them up to date
- Use a site notification tool like McAfee SiteAdvisor http://www.siteadvisor.com
- Enable IE7 security by reviewing information http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc512583.aspx
- Use a HOSTS file to block known bad sites
I use hpHosts and MVPS HOSTS files:
http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm <== has a good description of the HOSTS file and its use
I manage them with HostsMan and I use its HostsServer proxy to speed up browsing:
- Use Common sense
Do not use P2P ( file sharing ) applications as they are a favorite vehicle for malware writers.
Do not download videos promising explicit views or special features

IE is OK! Firefox is superb!
what else do I need to say?
Perhaps "Corona is brilliant"?
I just installed this update through Windows Update and reboot required.
Perhaps we could say this...

Thanks for that hazel.
>_< i just switch to Firefox from Internet Explorer and i think Firefox is good!
As I mentioned in another thread here...yes. You can use both FF and Opera on the same computer without conflicts.
