the German Government has issued warnings to the public about serious issues with IE even the latest renditions have problems. I understand that France will be doing the same.

Error in title; should read "Anyone not having trouble with Internet Exploder?"

A patch to the vulnerability was issued last night, and is now available via windows update. No web browser is totally foolproof, Firefox has security holes patched all the time its just you dont notice it downloading them without your permission and installing them the next time you start the browser. Dont forget also that Google Chrome, uploads albeit anonymously data about your web browsing patterns.

IE = Intermittent Explorer. More patches than a tramps jacket.

Firefox for me every time

True but IE flaws do tend to be more serious becuase it's so tightly integrated with the rest of the OS.

Opera is worth a look too if you're switching browser.

I would keep IE, as there are some occasions where you will need it. Such as MS updates site.

i have turned off IE and went for FF and so far it it good, I like it, only nearly every site I go on needs to DL stuff for it, but I spose after a few I should have everything lol.
