Internet Explorer has been on every one of my PCs since the 1990’s ... I haven’t used it, but it’s been on there ...

Ask Microsoft what would have happened had they told the Justice Department, “Ummmm, sorry, our email server had a hard drive crash and all of our emails are gone.”

IE was Microsoft's panicked foray into the browser wars back in the 1990s as Netscape was about to run away with the Internet.

IE achieved market share through brute force and making it almost impossible for a Windows user to use anything else.

Great, my stupid city’s GIS system only works under IE. Maybe this will force them to update.

But I keep getting a phone call from a guy with an Indian accent informing me that my Microsoft operating system has been compromised. I tell him I haven’t used windows in ten years and hang up. But he keeps calling and calling and calling . . .

but we will also have a new browser called Project Spartan, which is code-named Project Spartan.

Um, okay.

Just makes me think of Blazing Saddles: "Well, my name is Jim. But most people call me ... Jim."

IE6 was the start of crappy, non-standards compliant, proprietary MS browsers. IE11, however, is an excellent browser.

Good, have not used it in many years. never trusted the damn thing, particualrly after MS tried to force it on you insisting it was part of the OS.
