Internet Explorer died on me...

HiddenNook · 02-04-2005, 11:04 PM

I turn the firewall on...I turn the firewall off! It doesn't matter! IE won't even open up at all! I don't know if I have a virus or not, but it wouldn't matter since I am running Win ME (which is like the world's biggest virus).

If it were not for Firefox I would be comepletely dead in the water! So now I have been viewing the net through this new program which is forcing me to learn how it works and operates.

Ironically I ranted against Firefox (which now makes me look really retarded). Either God has a sense of humor or he is humbling the IE pride in me. Selah...

Haha. I told you that Firefox would once beat IE, and that IE would once be rubbish.

Once IE dies, all of the spyware, viruses, etc., will be focused on alternative browsers. Being that Firefox is the most popular, it will be the first to be targeted. I'm sure browsers such as firefox and opera have security leaks, their just not known yet because noone cares. Not when 90% of the net uses IE still.

i know theres a lot of anti microsoft people out there, and i also notice that things like the msblaster were written by people who hate microsoft, it may be extremists that support open source that are doing this, and will leave open source alone, and keep concentrating on grinding windows to the ground
