Guess I'll just let my puter die then.
Seems that XP is already unsupported.

Internet Exploder has always been crap in my opinion. I switched to Firefox years ago.

10 Bears · 01-06-2016, 01:38 PM

I use Firefox, but my primary is XP.

Internet Explorer is a web browser, not an operating system.

I have a Lenovo tower, came with XP installed.
It replaced my MS2e (or what ever that was)

I'm still not puter savvy about much.

IE sucks but there are still some sites that require it.

The old MLS system for real estate had to be used on IE, this year they changed to a new system that you can run on Firefox.

I never use I.E.

Firefox for me.

Just another way to force the spyware known as Windows 10 on people.

Internet Exploder has always been crap. Firefox, unfortunately is creeping up to a close second, in the crap department. The latest FF update made it so several websites we frequent won't load completely. There are also a few other more minor issues.

But, IE is still the cead of the crap department.

Switched from Firefox to Google Chrome about 5 years ago & never looked back. I don't know anybody who still uses IE these days.
