Well I haven’t used IE 8…but IE 7 sucks big chunks. IE6 owns IE7. We just pushed out IE7. You know how much shit broke in terms of people not being able to access the same sites, things not loading completely, etc. etc.? The way IE7 handles things is horrible.

Maybe FF is safe.

That’s not IE’s fault. IE only can render what it is given. If you render a Netscape or IE6 developed site in IE7, expect that. It’s not IE’s fault per say. IE8 is more standards driven so it will be more compatible in the future. IE made the mistake of trying to set the trend of what JS should be instead of being compatiable like the current version. (the one in Beta anyhow).

Ive used Firefox before and I always end up going back to IE anyway so I didnt bother downloading it when I rebooted Windows.

FF seems to only save logins and passwords when it feels like it.

FF3 wouldn’t suck so bad if it didn’t crash all the time and if the memory leaks didn’t exist.
