About Internet Explorer:
The problem isn't that IE is inherently bad, it's that Microsoft doesn't play fair, nor follow the World's standards for the Internet. They change stuff around and in doing so, websites don't work right when viewed in IE.
What does that mean? Well for one thing, if you make a website to work with any other browser, it looks like crap in IE .... And no, I am NOT going to make 2 or 3 different pages to cover each browser... And really, I don't have to; IE is the only one who doesn't play "fair" so I'm not going to try. Yes, I'll make sure it works with IE, but I'm not designing for it.
Okay, more than that... not only does it not look right but it doesn't even work right in IE, so it ends up infuriating us even more!
I know, I know... you don't care -- you just want to look at websites. Fine, it's also ridden with security problems.
FACT: Internet Explorer is more irritating than Clown Porn but less irritating than Crazy Frog
You may also find Bullguard Anti-Virus and Talk Talk irritating.
