For a vast majority of the people IE does what they need to be done and hence there is no need to look for another browser. If IE was all that bad would people not have asked around for an option.... With all of Firefox extensions.. how many does an average user need. I cannot think of any... Secondly... Firefox addins and extensions are also a security threat.. I think most of the microsoft bashers are like the commies.. they don't want someone else to earn but want to make a buck out of their stuff... Hi,

They aren't as concerned with people using Chrome or Android. I think googles goal is more to spur the others to improve rendering and standards and speed so their web apps run better.

They are different tools that do similar things in different ways. The majority of people I've talked to who've used both prefer Firefox to IE. I personally had some issues with it being really slow on several websites that rendered perfectly fine in Firefox. Admittedly, I have not used IE in W7 because I do not use Windows. I'm sure they have made some improvements in IE as they have in Windows. My point is that with all the time people spend on their computers and with all they trust their computers for they should know that there are options and they should try them out. Also, as far as I know, IE does not have the many extensions to it that Firefox does which can be very nice to have.... See More To add to the Chrome discussion, I don't think they are so much nervous about their position as they want as many people as possible to be familiar with their browser to help ease the transition to the OS when it comes out, for those that will try it.

Can you give me any good/valid reasons why the inbuilt one isn't sufficient enough for most of the general public? :) You can change the stereo in your car aside of the one that comes in-built, but not many people do that…it’s only those that know and differ that will do that.

In fact, that's the exact reason so many people use Microsoft products in general. Most people don't know they have options and when you explain that to them, at least in my experience, IE is not the browser they choose. Bottom line is, people need to know they have choices and they need to examine those choices and decide what works best for them.
