Each and every day Microsoft furnishes yet another incentive to discontinue use of their increasingly inferior software and use other, better software instead.

Browers are the easiest to replace and given the magnificent set of addons for Firefox (despite FF’s many flaws), FF can be made to be a FAR more useful browser than IE, with additions like Adblock Plus, Element Hiding Helper, CookieCuller, BetterPrivacy, DoNotTrackMe, TabMixPlus, IE View, and Visited.

Without addons like these, I find trying to read almost ANY media web page an impossible task because the actual text gets repeatedly covered up and relegated to increasingly smaller parts of the page. I particularly like Element Hider for nuking crap that Adblock Plus misses, as well as adding my own anti-paywall blocks with Adblock Plus like blocking the ppjol website paywall cookie-maker.

I use several browsers, mostly for testing sites. Every single one has issues. It pretty much boils down to which one is least annoying for how you want to use your system.

Thanks for the tips - will try some of them out - especially Element Hiding.
