I'd only switch back to IE if they improved their standards support. And about security, I hope they do well, but I think that a safe computer is 30% software, 70% user sensibility.

depends if IE7 has the features I use (middle click tabs/intregation of right click menu/adblock) etc. and also, most importantly, if it is lighter than firefox. I like firefox but how light resources usage is the most important thing. shame ff is a bit buggy.

IE is sometimes faster for me, but right now I am using Firefox becuase it looks prettier. I don't give a damn about standards. All except the most complicated of pages turns out fine for me on both browsers.

IE does what I need it to do... I haven't really encountered any major problems.

I use FireFox sometimes. Depends on what I'm doing. I would use IE7. But also use FireFox at the same time.

ummmm.....the spyware, adware and all the other bullshiit scripts that Microsoft fails to make its products immune to regardless of the almost monthly windows updates which are mostly security fixes for IE. That is just sad and the fact that it pleagues your computer like that makes me want to get rid of IE even more. Recompiling the windows code after my buddy and I get rid of IE and modify it is my next goal. Heck I may even give it away so others shall enjoy a IE free windows, thats if windows will work without IE. I've said it b4 and I'll say it again, GET FIREFOX!

4. FF fanboys need to just place the word " ff fanboy" on their posts without arguements. Our imaginations will fill in the details of every possible arguement you will make anyway.

If I open internet explorer and browse basically any website, I have a ton of spyware in seconds.

WTF? Don't you have any spyware blockers? If you did, you wouldn't get "a ton of spyware in seconds"

if we can soft (sic) favorites in the order we want *AND* the capability to add separators like bookmark in mozilla/firefox

You can sort favorites on IE as well. What are you referring to?

Or you could run Firefox or Opera and save your system the trouble of running malware blockers alongside your browser.
