The Top 5 Reasons To Avoid Internet Explorer

I have recently been having a lot of problems with IE and I decided I could make a list over it, even though there is only a few reasons to switch browsers, here is why you should avoid IE. Here is your T5R. *these ideas are purely of my opinion*

#5) Microsoft Already Has Enough Money

Microsoft is a company with too much money, we all know that saying "the rich just get richer", well if you keep using IE this will hold true. Why support a company that supplies you with a bad service and makes loads from it. Web browsers do not make all that money but, whenever you go out and buy a copy of Windows Xp you are paying a small fee for it.

#4) Don't Let The Man Get You Down

Microsoft forces all of its users to have internet explorer, just try and remove it--I dare you. Why would anyone want to use software that is mandatory. So instead of using IE just ignore it, because it isn't going away.

#3) Page Errors

For all of you coders and webmasters out there, you probably know how hard it is to code for. You can view a page in IE that works in every other browser and won't work in it. It is annoying to go to broken pages and IE is more of a cause for this than anything else.


#2) Crashes A Lot

Internet Explorer crashes more than any other browser there is, I could have just opened the thing up and it decides its going to crash. I it's going to crash why even bother with using the thing.

#1) Slower Than Others

In a recent test, IE 8 --Microsoft's newest release-- was proven to run 8x slower than the newest version of Firefox and Safari. I don't know about you, but that gives me plenty of reason to switch over. If you would like to see the tests go here.

Here are some reasons to that I prefer other browsers. I prefer firefox over IE because of its huge versatility, there is too many plug-ins to count! I use Opera as my primary browser maily because of its sleek design and speed-dial. Safari browser is amazing and there are plenty of reasons to use it, find out in my previous article over it.

Want more evidence of IE's page errors, here is my latest archive... it has been tested in the 4 most popular browsers and only shows errors in IE. "New Archive"
We are working on the issue though because we understand that a lot of you use IE.
