bye bye IE

I finally decided to dump Internet Explorer this morning. I’ve read about the fact that security experts say IE has so many security holes it’s unrepairable. But the thing that sent me over the edge was, I got tired of the crashing. Does the following ring a bell to anyone: “Do you want to send an error report to Microsoft?” Yeah, like they are going to look into why my browser crashed and get back to me? I remember when I said “Yes” to those messages. What a joke.

I transferred my bookmarks over to Mozilla 1.7 15 minutes ago, and am now trying to find out if there is a google toolbar for this browser. I’m going to give Mozilla at least a month before I decide whether I like it.

Darn just discovered another feature I miss already: IESpell. In IE, I can right click and use IESpell to spell check any text box entry. Mozilla doesn’t have this. Now I have to cut and paste this post to a editor and spell check it!
