    They already had a lawsuit for that. Also its a search engine. Would you be stupid enough to cut out so many users right away from using your engine just because they dont use IE.

    I use both... Cuz there are still lots of sites optimized for IE...

    Especially asian sites. People in Korea don't use firefox and I can't run some activex applications with firefox.

    But I still think MSN is doing something stupid... I'm 100% sure they have ability to mke their site compatible for both browsers.

    Are they doing this just because they hate firefox?

    Yea, I was kidding.. Although, I really use Firefox about 95% of the time but it is true that some sites just will not work without IE.

    I use IE. Haven't tried Mozzilla or Firefox because this is an old computer and I can't be bothered. People tell me I am missing out on stuff...but ah well.

    firefox is better, because of Tabs and security and especially the extensions, especially for me since im a web developer the javascript console helps a lot. Unlike IE where it takes me hours finding a JS bug.

    But IE always renders things stupid, and actually doesnt read code correctly. Also its CSS engine and stuff isn't good. It fails completely on acid2 test.

    MSN, is just a copy cat copying Yahoo! cuz their search engine is sucking. They did this so they can regain some popularity.

    What really sucks is, there are people that make websites and dont care about browser compatability, which in itself drives people away from firefox (since people see websites terribly in Firefox, they blame the browser rather than the developer).
