This week, The Department of Homeland Security’s U.S. Computer Emergency Readiness Team reccomended that people not use IE as their browser. No surprise there, IE has become a target for those who prey on innocent users. So, maybe it’s time you switched browsers???
I am really not such a geek that I like to get into all the technology debates of which OS and which product is better. And for years I stuck with IE as my browser because Netscape/Mozilla didn’t produce a fast browser with the features I wanted.
If you’re a regular reader of Daddyo, you know that I’ve really gotten into Mozilla’s Firefox. In addition to the warning from the government, recent headlines have touted new trojans for IE that try to steal banking information. Oh, and don’t forget all the spyware problems that come from IE. Online life is much safer and faster now that I use Firefox.
