Internet Explorer vs Firefox

Posted by Ken at 4/11/2006 04:45:00 AM
If any of you out there that read my page are still using Internet Explorer, please stop! It sucks! Just to prove to you how much it sucks, look at my page in Firefox and then look at it in Internet Explorer. Look how much it messes up the page! On the right, for some reason, it even merges the "Ken's Cam" and the "Server stats" blocks into one. Look at how the pictures in some of my entries seem to go out of the entry borders. Internet Explorer is messed up and does not follow any standards. Use Firefox!

(I posted this because I see that I'm still getting hits from Internet Explorer! Stop it!)

    IE is for morons, people who don't know how to change the default settings on their own computer, and those who just refer to a browser as "the internet."

    Firefox may be better, but I don't think it's anything to get up in arms about, or to put down IE users for. I happen to like Internet Explorer. Some people don't refuse to get firefox because they don't know how to change their settings, either, (which, incidentally, I submit does not make you a moron- I know many very smart people, even fairly computer literate ones, who cannot do this.) I say, to every man or woman their own browser, and let us live in peace. ;-)

    Cami,

    A couple of things...

    - By using Internet Explorer my site looks really crappy. It makes people think that I have no idea what I'm doing. Internet Explorer does not follow the W3C standards at all. If you refuse to take 2 minutes to install Firefox on your computer then find someone who has it and look at my site. It looks much better!

    - Internet Explorer has many security vulnerabilities. By using it you are opening up your computer to trojans, viruses, etc. If you think your computer is running slower than it should, it probably all comes back to the fact that you use Internet Explorer.

    These are the facts. If you still want to use it, then you can. Nobody will stop you.

    Hey, I resent that. And all the IE bashing. It doesn't speak volumes about a person's intelligence, knowledge, or moral character. It's just another browser. Relax.
