Holes or no holes, stop using IE. Chrome sucks too. Firefox/Mozilla is the best & safest browser.

Chrome is awesome. What's your issue with it?


That's too much power to give to Google. For the same reason I don't use gmail. They've already got the OS on my phone and they control the search results I get. That's more than enough power. Spread the fucking wealth.


Well the market would bemore competitive if IE modernized. Right now it's sort of the Terry Boers of browsers: big name, long history, but over the past five or so years no one really knows what it does anymore.

That may be because the website you're visiting hasn't adapted to chrome. There are many websites that specifically ask that you only visit them using Firefox or, sadistically, IE, and perhaps other websites with similar issues are not kind enough to post a notice.

Hairy bush lesbian grandma.com has no such demands .


bigsausagepizza.com is optimized for IE.

I think it's funny that Bill Gates is seen as a genius and a visionary rather than just the guy who was able to buy DOS the way way Peter Minuit bought Manhattan from the Indians. The truth is Microsoft has always been behind the curve when it comes to the Internet. Gates thought that the desktop would always be preeminent and didn't believe the future was in the cloud. Larry Ellison was the real visionary. Gates' browser has always been playing catchup and now that battle is over. The only reason anyone still uses IE is because it's already installed. But the traditional desktop is largely becoming a thing of the past. We browse on phones and tablets. Microsoft has become what IBM was when Jobs and Woz were back in the garage.

I have more optimization issues with Firefox than Chrome these days. I've finally switched my office PC to Chrome as the default browser, having used Firefox here for the last few years.

Weird. I use the best product if it is the best product. I'm not going to be penalize a company for being too good.

I've got nothing to hide. If they find my youjizz.com history, meh. Sometimes I spank it.

Why don't you just give Sergey Brin your social security number and PIN and let Larry Page fuck your girlfriend?
