    Instead of IE7 or IE8, you can use FIREFOX which is best to you.
    I used it and never find any type of problem.

    Internet Explorer isn't safe to use yet imo. I wouldn't use it until Microsoft gets there act together, I've heard they will but who knows.. Stick to Firefox/Opera/Chrome.. I have experienced a few crashes with Firefox lately.. but the thing is when it crashes it saves the tabs that were open so its not a huge problem imo.

    I am now using the latest version of IE8. The latest update solved a persistent ieframe.dll problem. It's okay to use IE8, but trust Firefox more.

    Absolutely not better than Firefox and still about 10 years behind web standards. Incompetent with most.
    IE8 is built into the operating system as part of "file explorer". You will not see all that IE8 uses. FF cannot be built into the OS so its usage is fully exposed.

    Yep I agree with people saying to use firefox as it is the best one... and if you still not want to use firefox then I suggest you to use IE8 because IE7 has too many security vulnerabilities.

    Technically, IE8 will still be about 10 years behind all other browsers in support for current web standards so using IE8 does not help move the web forward.

    Though most of the members has left negative comments, it is still the best browser according to statistics.

    Show me these statistics. You can't. And once you tell me you can't, I'll show you statistics that prove it's the worst browser on the planet.

    Statistics? Do you mean how IE is still the most widely used browser? Well this is because it comes with Windows:rolleyes:

    Alot of computer users do not know the difference, or do not use it enough to change browsers. IE is not the best browser and I challenge you to these statistics.
