I stopped using Internet Explorer a long time ago.
With Internet Explorer my computer would freeze up, even with my fast internet connection pages took long to load, I was getting pop ups even with the pop up blocker on, my computer was constantly being bombarded with spyware, and going online was a hassle.
Does any of this sound familiar?
I thought it was my computer until I figured out it was actually Internet Explorer!
Turns out…Internet Explorer has security issues that hackers exploit and use to wreak havoc (maybe that’s why your computer is acting crazy). Internet Explorer put my desktop PC on the injured reserve list. I won’t even touch it any more. I downloaded and installed Firefox for free on my PC and Mac laptops. It took me about 5 minutes and has saved me hours of frustration.
Why anyone would continue to use Internet Explorer when they can get Firefox for free is beyond me. I say give it a try you have nothing to lose. It’s free, easy, and more importantly better than Internet Explorer. Why use a mediocre troublesome web browser when you have access to the best?
I know for some of my friends, switching from Internet Explorer is like changing phone service. They are so use to and loyal to AT&T that going with another provider is unfathomable. Guess what folks… Internet Explorer sucks and its time for change. If you’re paying for internet access every month you might as well access it with the best and most secure web browser.
Its funny how changing our thinking affects so many areas of our lives even down to how we surf the internet.
