There is a mistake in security in Internet Explorer. I have set up password to prevent my friends from viewing bad sites but someone changed. Now I cannot use IE. IE is too bad ! :-(

Just started using IE, and I like it. (To fan the flames a bit...)

re #2 If you are being serious what do you like about it? I use Netscape exclusively because Micro$ofts marketing tactics disgust me so much. I would be interested in hearing though about any significant differences it has from Netscrape.

Microsoft's marketing tactics disgust me too, but since I have IE on hand I've been getting familiar with it. A few things that I like: point & click editing of bookmarks, easy access to history file, search-on-demand, smooth scrolling, easy font resizing, ability to create link index and image index from any page. A feature I expect to like but haven't used yet is the built-in XML support. In general, IE has a smooth, quick feel to it. Netscape seeks a little clunky by comparison. My comments apply only to the latest version of IE. Earlier versions I've used are markedly inferior.
