Heres one, IE 8 is a like bucket of spanners in a fish & chip shop - useless in another form words - buggy, security nightmare, patchy with secure updates , spammer best friend = sh*tty browser out right !
Avoid at ALL costs!
Best to use a non Microsh*t based browser like Firefox, opera (hint: very secure) chrome etc & same for your email programme too.
The only reason that IE 8 works so well, as it's written for poor coded web sites (theirs a lot) not high-grade like Firefox etc are written in mind. As is IE8 it's self poorly constructed/written to make sure you can surf any web site be it infected or just poorly written/coded. So ask yourself why put yourself at risk at every time you surf the web or do internet banking.
Last but not least never ever do internet banking with IE8 at all, if you do kiss your money good-bye! |
lol - you obviously know a lot about web browsers. lol!!! check your facts before spouting crap. and no, I'm not going to do your homework for you - you go and get the REAL facts. you might be surprised (if you dare to look outside of wherever it is you dwell) about how secure IE8 actually is compared to other browsers.
oh, and btw - open source means the community can produce whatever to bolt on. unless you can code very well, you'll have no idea what you are adding into your browser. closed source = more secure, imo
