Microsoft finally guilty of their browser.
on: May 14, 2009, 07:45:06 pm
After re-installing AVG and scanning, I get this after a fresh reboot:

Guess even Microsoft will admit their browser sucks. Indeed, not using it is protecting my computer.

17:37:22   Quanto: its not gay if its an elf

[21:51] <@Droid803> I now realize
[21:51] <@Droid803> this will be SLIIIIIGHTLY awkward
[21:51] <@Droid803> as this rich psychic girl will now be tsundere for a loli.
[21:51] <@Droid803> OH WELLL.

[07:57:32] <Caiaphas> inspired by HerraTohtori i built a supermaneuverable plane in ksp
[07:57:43] <Caiaphas> i just killed my pilots with a high-g maneuver
[07:58:19] <Caiaphas> apparently people can't take 20 gees for 5 continuous seconds
[08:00:11] <Caiaphas> the plane however performed admirably, and only crashed because it no longer had any guidance systems

Yeah that was my first thought as well.  Firefox all the way!

Exactly. But, as Charismatic stated, it's not possible to delete it. (as far as I know)

Doesn't eat so much of my active memory game performance is impacted. Unlike Firefox.

That is because it makes your inactive memory bigger. It's preloaded into the system.

You can by the way, remove it before you instlal windows, using nLite.

It is possible to do so under Windows 7. Go to Add/Remove Programs, click on the "Turn Windows Features On or Off"-Link, and deselect IE8.

Once again this is where I say I don't have the problems with IE that the rest of the general population seems to have.

This is kind ogf the problem with IE. For the End user, it works just fine. But for Web designers, they have (or had) to work around all the little things IE does (or did) wrong. Couple that with the fact that there are still people around who use IE6 (which is worse in terms of standards compliance than any other current Browser), and you have a whole lot of angry web designers.
