Same reason I won’t use Chrome. I use Fire Fox and am quite happy with it.

ditto on chrome - a monster child of GOOGLE.

I didn't even download it - I downloaded GOOGLE Earth to look at a specific place. A few days later - boom, there was GOGGLE Chrome - and then, blam , It totally took over my desktop - every single icon and froze most of them,

I had one devil of a time uninstalling it - it had wrapped and weaved itself all through my computer.

I was finally able to recapture my desktop sites and data.
I use IE8 but may switch. I used Firefox for a bit a couple years ago and had trouble with it. I tried Dogpile but my virus protector didn't like it.

Speaking of virus protectors - I recently put on STOPzilla and am impressed with it. (Haven't checked but I suspicion it's connected to Firefox/Mozilla?
