Browse Happy with Firefox
Alot of negative publicity has been given to Microsoft over its browser Internet Explorer. While many people are forced to use IE, others do so because they don’t know any better and some just like it. All valid reasons to use IE, but you might want to consider Firefox instead.
From a security standpoint, IE is a risk because it integrates so intimately with the Operating System. While Microsoft touts this as a benefit, I think there needs to be a clear divide between what is on my computer and what is on another computer. The very same libraries used to make browsing your local computer for that saved Word document or picture of great aunt Ruth are the same libraries sending and recieving data from the internet.
