Really irritating.
Pros:-
1) direct access from the Start menu.
Cons:-
1) IE 11 only runs in Windows Service Pack 1 or higher.
2) There is a lack of security and privacy features.
3) It has a totally outdated look and speed.
You can also try Firefox, Opera, Chrome.
Microsoft could do better, with the frequent crashes, missing files, and broken registry links, it should have been called; "Microflop Internext Exploder"
IE has been, is and will continue to be the best browser. It has amazing safety features, it is user friendly software, has great addons and features like accelerators etc.
Have run IE from the very 1st edition and still prefer it to the others I've checked. I have Chrome & Firefox loaded to check my site designs on and have even tried out Safari. I really don't like any of them as much. My two bits.
I don't doubt that IE 8 has oodles of great points, BUT from my own viewpoint as a website developer it's HOPELESS. Microsoft software developers seem just NEVER to learn, and still produce a browser that is quirky and outright buggy in its rendering of quite basic styling commands, and still doesn't recognise certain web design standards that are recognised by other modern browsers, and which present day website developers use to make their pages clearer and more pleasant to view. For the most part Firefox, Opera and Safari get these things right, but for some reason our 'great' software giant MS fluffs it with every version.
Very slow & clunky, I would suggest anything other than this browser. Opera, FireFox, Chrome, Pivot...seriously, anything other than IE will be better, faster, more secure!
because Internet Explorer is one of the most popular multi-language Internet browsers for Windows. Version 8 has been modernized and now it contains many new features that make our navigation more comfortable and faster. Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool searches our computer for malicious software. In this version, we can choose to install Accelerators, Web Slices, Search Providers, and Add-ons.
Mozilla Firefox is a much better program for surfing the web. Also with its addons like noscript which protects you from any software websites might try to run on your computer... and the fact that it is all free I just don't see any reason to go back
