Re: Is Microsoft's Internet Explorer safe to use?

Under default settings on Vista or higher IE is probably the safest browser.
I find that very interesting, I thought that Firefox was the safest and that's why so many people switched to it.
What's your take on Safari {when run on a PC}?

Chrome for me.
Do you find it more or less resource - demanding than the others?

I really really really really really really really really hate the fact that FF tries to update pretty much all the time. Everytime I start the damn thing I have to click no I don't want to update, then every now and again I accidentally click yes and then need to re-install the old version. Incredibly annoying, and no doubt is playing a big role in their decline over the last few years.
I notice this too, and also

One big one that bugged me was pop ups, I never see those anymore with FF. With IE I see them, even with their version of the blocker.
Ads, Adverts, Advertisements, however you want to say it, they're DRIVING ME NUTS!
Some do get 'blocked', as you say, but what difference does that make most of the time - there's usually a few flashing away at you from somewhere on the screen, or else some overlay invades your screen entirely - just barges right in like it owns the place, and here's my beef:

I feel that I pay a lot already for my internet connection, and think I should be exempt from most if not all advertisements due to that fact.
I know it's silly to say but that's just how I am - I say what's on my mind, good, bad, or ugly.
