Why does Internet Explorer suck so much?
Can someone please tell me?
I mean, this is ridiculous.
I have quite a few google accounts that I spend a significant amount of time in.
I hate logging in and out of each of them, so I open up different browser windows that allow different cookie sessions and I don’t have to log out of one to log into another.
By default I use Firefox.
But, when I need another google account open, I have to open IE because it doesn’t share cookies.
However, IE always crashes!
It just freezes my computer. The mouse works fine, but nothing else responds (not even ctrl-alt-del).
Recently I’ve been able to track this problem specifically to IE causing the problem.
So, here’s my question (I actually have 2 questions):
Why can’t a piece of software that you’ve been working on for 89 years and that is an “integral” part of your operating system, just work?
Seriously, why can’t it just be a nice, functioning, leave my computer alone and don’t crash, piece of software?
My second question: Can someone help me with a different solution?

John,
Apple just released Safari for Windows.
Thanks for the help on the Google Adwords crash course for Jeffrey. We’re diving into it.

John,
What happened to writingup? Did you shut it down? It hasn’t been working for so long now that I’ve given up, and I had two blogs there! I was a real devoted community person on writingup. I’m pretty disappointed.
Would’ve been nice if you’d have emailed every blogger who gave their time to having a blog on writingup to say what had happened. (I know you have their emails.)
I’ve emailed you a few times about this, and never received a reply. Not good practice for a guy who wants to succeed in business.

Sure, use Opera.
John,
Well if you like Firefox, stick with Mozilla. Just install their Seamonkey package here:

This used to be Netscape 6+/Mozilla Application Suite, and the browser portion should not share cookies with Firefox.
Moz
Yeah, what happened to writingUp??

My alternate browser is Opera, and it’s actually not bad in some ways. Yes IE does suck.
you hot the nail on the head Windows internet explorer totaly SUCKS, is a pain and should go bankrupt
Try Google Chrome!
I personally feel that with the design of Microsoft’s Vista, that Microsoft is beginning it’s downhill trip to
going out of business. I have been in computers since 1984, and for the first time I am looking around for a new operating system besides a Microsoft product. For me, personally, Vista was more than a big disappointment. And now Internet Explorer seems to have bottomed out as well. Perhaps Apple now has a better system.
I use opera. I just tried to open IE for a complex reason, and the fucking thing locks up for 2 minutes trying to open. Thus, I typed "why does internet explorer suck" into google out of frustration and found this blog.
