I'd wager that the IQ of the IE users is on average LESS because so many

folks are simply "sheeple" in terms of using whatever came with MS

Windows and not likely to seek out alternatives like techies and some

other power users might be. I wouldn't call them "dumb" though, as the

article title said.

Could you not just admit that ie9 is better than ff ? I had FF for some time

but it became slow to load. I don't like opera or chrome. So I use ie9

because I prefer it.

I downloaded FF5 last night for a friend and was not impressed. It has this

box with messages in which I couldn't see how to remove, messages like 'Be a

Web Hero!' - but I don't want to. Also I couldn't get it to use Google

instead of iGoogle - not impressed.

Oh I made no position about what's better at all...IE9 could be the 2nd

coming of Christ for all I know. I didn't check it out. (I thought you

had to have Win 7 to get IE9?)

I use IE because of the ease of use via OLE. If the others worked like that,

I'd take a look. If they do work with automation, I haven't seen any

examples.

Yes you do need win 7. I took offence at being referred to as less than

intelligent because I use ie. So I was explaining why I use it

Correlation does not imply causality.

Intelligent people understand that. ;-)
