IE -v- Firefox

Yes, they do,

Most new pc' sold in retail shops have it already installed or easier to install.

So its not until someone tell them Firefox is better, that they think about changing.

i no that...........meant the option

I use IE because if my listings work properly in it, then they will work in the other browsers. FireFox (+ Google Chrome + Safari) is too forgiving about HTML errors when you edit listings and if you create your listings in it, you will not see the errors that show up in Internet Explorer. So while you think that FireFox is great because you have less issues, in fact, FireFox hides listing errors in HTML.

IE is a bag of nails and is the cause of more problems to page coders than anything else. It does not follow industry standards and goes its own merry way. That is why you see page code full of lines like <!--[if lt IE 8]> and one CSS file for IE and one for all other browsers. If you want to code a page you write initially for the likes of Firefox, Chrome, Safari, and Opera. You then go back to see what does not display properly in IE and bodge the code to make it work in IE.

All PC Systems that are new now have the choice of browsers, IE isn`t the default browser installed, it went to court as Microsoft had the monopoly, which was unfare to other browser companies.
