I use an IE shell...
Tried Firefox... so many little bugs it drove me away... Tried Opera... not nearly as bad, but I hated the advertisement... So, an IE Shell it is (MyIE2). All the features I want, none of the quirky bugs or annoying ads. Plus I run an anti-virus, firewall, and keep my system patched.

And the nice thing about firefox imo, is that you can report bugs to the develop team, see this page. Don't think IE has that future. |

Then I realized Java didn't work. At all. I installed the damn plugin about 90 times before I gave up. Okay, I can live without Java applets... Then I realized I couldn't copy anything into the clipboard. At all. Whatsoever. That was just the last straw, really. Quote:
