Re: Why do you use Internet Explorer?
i like the layout and interface of Internet Explorer, plus its what i've always used. It just has a nice clean interface to be honest.

Re: Why do you use Internet Explorer?
I use IE for work intranet sites because they are written for IE (Sharepoint isn't great with FF) and Firefox for anything external.

Re: Why do you use Internet Explorer?
As others have said, I fall back on IE to view sites that don't work properly with other browsers

Re: Why do you use Internet Explorer?
At the end of the day it's just an internet browser, as long as i can get my web pages, i don't really care what browser i use, doesn't really make a difference imo

Although i obviously dont use IE on my own machines i do occasionally use it on other peoples...........usually to install Firefox for them and of course update Windows.

why would you have IE6 on your machine? Why not upgrade to IE8 no need for those MYIE rip offs.

Re: Why do you use Internet Explorer?
I use IE out of habit and the fact that I am just not ready to make firefox my full time browser yet.

It means it won't work properly in IE.
I use Firefox nearly all the time. Some sites just don't work at all without IE. They tend to not get used. And I like the addons for Firefox. xMarks is nearly the first to go on to any new machine, sync my passwords and bookmarks.
I am working on a site for work and IE6 doesn't work properly, IE7 is OK but IE8 looks really odd. Works great in FF. (W3C standard XHTML).

Re: Why do you use Internet Explorer?
I keep a few browsers installed for testing out HTML/Javascript. That includes IE, but Firefox is my full-time browser.
