Wrong forum, but need this to be seen by as many as possible.

Hearing media reports of a warning from DHS about not using Internet Explorer. I am one who has used Explorer from the beginning, and have tried others, but keep coming back. What should I do?

So you are the one still using IE.... I think you can download patches, serioulsy though, Chrome or FF are much faster/less resource intensive than IE. I'd switch

you can disable the flash plug-in and still use IE safely as well....

What should I do?

you can select internet explorer to not be your "default"
browser select google chrome or just plain google instead

you have to go to control panel/internet/ browser options
to change that.....

These days I would use Chrome or FireFox. I only use IE where required.

it Rocks for speed and specificity... on accurate searches

but i'll wait for Micro$uck to issue a "fix"

Switched to Chrome by my computer member guru. Responsive. Took a little time getting use to format from using IE for ions.

I was a FireFox user. But, the quality of that browser has been going down slowly.

I use Chrome on Mac, Linux, Windows, iPad, and iPhone. Works every time without fail. LOVE IT. ;-)
