I am doggedly sticking to IE6 thanks... :)


IE7, no probs so far, wasn't downloaded automaticaly, I downloaded it myself.

I think it is far superior to IE6.

Links (the text based browser available on most *nix systems) is far superior to IE6  ::)

Links is available for Wintel systems as well.  Incidentally, tends to only come with Linux type Unix...

But then, as nobody has written a usable, secure, stable graphical desktop for Unix, a text based option is your only choice ;)

I'm guessing that IE3.02 user is doing it to provoke a reaction from me?

My laptop was slowing down.....after installing IE7 .....continuous disk activity for 5 mins or so at times...and i was starting to blame IE7 for it....but yesterday i ran defrag.....dunno how long it took....i started it and then went off to work.....laptop is running a lot faster again now  :y

My desktop upstairs still has IE6 on it that i sometimes use to access OOF.....does that mess up the stats?  :-/

No, stats here are unscientific, plus we have a higher proportion of savvy users than general sites...  ...also, one person wouldn't really skew stats...

The non IE browsers (90%) are FF2, FF1 (yes, half of FF users are using critically flawed older versions, probably smugly thinking they are safe as they don't use IE!), bit of Netscape, tiny bit of Opera, bit of Safari (Macs), some generic Mozilla, even some poor sod using Konquerer (Muppet ;))

Safari is in the Jan stats, so someone (I suspect more than one) is still using it...
