Yes it does! FF has shown me today a window stating that FF That's is, in my book, notification of an update. FF does tell you that updates are available! I was told by a dialog that appeared automatically yesterday that an update to FF Firefox works perfectly well with that many tabs open, and the user interface to keep track of them and swithch between them is easy to use. While I don't doubt that IE would cope with that many tabs open, in terms of not crashing, I don't think the user interface would be practical.
I did not even get a scroll bar on the tabs, let alone any sane way of grouping them. For me that is the main reason IE sucks: The user interface is hostile to power users and there are few if any usefull plugins to change the UI.
In any case, in my day to day usage, I don't have the option to run IE, because I manly use Linux, so from my point of view the other reason IE sucks is that it is the only mainstream browser that is not cross platform. I haven't used IE since v5. However, there were few alternatives to IE back then, so getting your HTML to look the way you wanted it to look meant screwing up perfectly good code to accommodate IE's idiosyncrasies.
It was a royal PITA. Even now, OS X still has less exposure to hazard, but the days of zero OS X exploits in the wild are gone forever, it would seem. Anyhow, I follow the security news and, by all reports, Microsoft is doing a much better job of securing IE than in ye olden tymes. It also appears that they're doing a vastly better job of adhering to W3C standards.
So, while I don't think I'm qualified to vote in the poll, I'd have to say that if I can believe what I've been reading, IE apparently "sucks less than it used to". For example, Chrome is alleged to be faster and leaner. Those geniuses at MS hired a marketing company to help them… Probably the same firm that encourages the use of Chimps in Superbowl commercials.
It is a toolbar that easily saves passwords encrypted and syncs with my iPhone. There is no other application that works like it does. When I go to log into a website, it pops up with the ability to save the login and password.
I can enter the passwords in manually too. Then I sync it to my iPhone so I have all my passwords with me — encrypted. It does not work in any other application and so I have to keep IE. Anyone remember the web challenge to see if anyone could crack browsers using standard available tools, do it and win a nice sum of money?
I'm sure you know what I'm talking about Chrome busted in under 5 minutes. There's a lot I see still clinging on to that old skool early s mentality of, we must hate Miscrosoft because, umm well others do for, umm, some reason and I need to keep in with my peers. IE has not gotten any better or any worse really than it was before. It's a 'web browser' and for browsing web pages it works fine, always did.
Internet Explorer has no functionality to export the favorites. Internet Explorer is a shoddy low-class Browser that angers web designer with incompatiblity! Teilen Sie dies mit: Twitter Facebook.

This year Microsoft moved to an auto-upgrade policy for Internet Explorer , a policy long in place with competing browsers.
Microsoft is a huge, easy to find target. They're still the big dog in town. There's also many 'others' who hate them just because they are big and successful. It's far easier to enviously diminish accomplishment than to exert oneself to achieve. There's an expensive price to pay for that thinking. Despite the many errors Microsoft has committed and will commit, whether with the "hated" IE or something else, as a consequence of its efforts to be profitable it has been a huge plus to humanity's quality of life.
They've frustrated me, angered me, and made me pull out what little hair I have left. But hate IE? I'll leave that to 'others'. I might at some point in the near future go to a different OS, but I still respect the big dog. You need to be a member in order to leave a comment.
