PS: 3 new security holes patched for the IE today. Welcome to all new Opera/Firefox etc. users. 8)

Still don't like opera. I think I'm gonna go back to IE :P

I think the main reason IE is the most attacked is that it's the most widely used. Why would someone try to find a security hole in a program like Opera when millions more people use IE. Economics for criminals I guess :wink:

Though the reason it's used the most is not because it's the best now is it. :P

I guess it's just what I'm used to... :P

I dislike the tabs, the ads, and the extra "Convient" crap. Most of the time it gets in the way and is something that takes half a second to do anyway... I do like the great Pop-up blocker that Opera has but the google bar does a pretty good job as well.

I also here a lot of people complain about IE. Other than it's from Microsoft, I've never heard a valid complaint however (except maybe Al's post, but any valid website you'll probably visit won't have that line in it). Just curious why everyone hates it so much.

Ever looked at how much memory it eats up? Which causes older computers to crash a lot.

That's the catch. These units will only work with solar energy produced in the USA/North America

Over in the Netherland there is way too much smog for the sun to even think about recharging it. :beatnik:

Also it only works with 110 AC voltage.

Martha Stewart will be using this model in her jail cell.
