I'm Finally Fed Up with IE
I'm a long-time Microsoft user - both office apps and IE. I've always been glad to put up with the updates, etc., because the product worked. But, for some reason, this camel's back just broke.

The updates are just unending and some of the changes in XP's SP2 that affected features I did not want touched. And I didn't want to dig around in the registry undoing them. Now, MS argues about whether a spoof is a flaw. Guess what? If my PC is ruined by using your softaware, it's a security flaw.

Fuhgeddaboutit. I'll keep what I have now (no more upgrades or buying future versions of MS products for me) and use another browser. Unless they build a word processor or spreadsheet program that also washses dishes.
