    "Deadware!!!"

    April 23, 2012  |   By privatejohn

    Pros

    -None I Can Think Of When It Comes To IE8
    IE6 In Older Days (2002?-2008) Were Better, Then I See The Light Of Firefox Was A Way Better

    Cons

    -Slow Loading Page
    -Many Security Flaws
    -Many Unnecessary Add-ons (Most Are Toolbars)
    -NOT Customizable
    -(Starting From IE9-Present) Snubs At Windows XP
    -Prone To Adware

    Summary

    Use Firefox Instead.

    I AGREE so much with THIS reviewer's thoughts; IE truly IS AWFUL, so I use my Firefox with absolutely NO PROBLEMS WHATSOEVER.
