well i do it to improve web page browsing mostly..... then to allow IE to do more then the limited 4 (i think) downloads window limit in IE6 you can adjust it to more downloads... also you can priortize DNS and other internet settings in the registry, so webpages do load faster and dont 'hang' as they did on default settings...........

Everyone else who uses a good, secure, stable, feature-packed and standards compliant browser can type "about:config" (without the underscore) into the location bar to access hundreds of settings. ;)

I also use IE 6 and have no desire for a foreign browser on my computer. I also changed the number of connections that IE use to something like 1000. It will therefore use up to 1000 concurrent connections to open a website... Pictures load REALLY fast now. I see no need to use any other browser.

I use Proxomitron proxy server as a filter. It removes all banners, ads, crap scripts, popups, and it deactivates sneaky things such as preventing clicking of the right mouse button etc.

Combining it with IE I really see no need for other browsers.
