ie used to have issues in the past. microsoft improved it by releasing new os verions of windows. but to say that win7 allows ie to be turned off from control panel. before you couldn't even do it. now its possible. but other browsers should be bundled to improve iq.

I dunno about the users, but I'd definitely say the developers of IE aren't as intelligent as those of Firefox ... :lol:

microsoft that developed it don't focus on the matter anymore. plus i know why computers run slow. take a guess on what causes it. not viruses. how are programs installed correctly?

Or maybe just the developers of Opera have a high IQ for inventing such a clever media campaign. Hands up those who installed Opera when that news article came out *raises hand*

Be cautious when you read any thing that contains the phrase "according to a new study..." or "recent studies say that..." because it usually isn't long before they come up with some new study that contradicts with the slightly older study. Ooo golly-gee, was I using big words for someone with a lowered IQ??? :duh:
