I wish a company would make a browser as functional and good-looking as IE. My IE looks better than Firefox if I set it right.

Firefox and Opera have the same issues for me. I can't acess my online classes, I can't look at java, flash, streaming video or any of the stuff I can look at with IE. With IE I don't have to think about it, I don't have to configure plugins and I don't have to download an app everytime I want to watch a video.

Furthermore, neither Opera or Firefox load page layouts the same as IE. They have their own way of interpereting the HTML (or whatever) which is not neccesarily better than IE.

Firefox and Mozilla are only browsing companions for me. They are only useful when I know I'll be looking at dangerous content. In their current state they cannot replace IE.

I removed IE once... and I had to reinstall it. There's just too much things those other browsers won't load.
