Top 5 Reasons To Switch From Internet Explorer

5. Security
Internet Explorer's integration of ActiveX and Active Scripting allows websites to install programs and control your browser, and while there are security measures in place, Microsoft has proven over and over that there are holes in its software that can exploited.

Because your on n4g, and anything Microsoft is bad.
j/k

Firefox FTW

lol at pic, could it be more focused on her boobs?

illizit5871d ago (Edited 5871d ago )

Actually, any software has holes. MAC OS X, Windows, FireFox, etc. all have holes. Whether or not hackers choose to exploit them is a different story. More people use Internet Explorer, that is a FACT so obviously as a hacker what software are you going to exploit to affect the most users possible??

chaosatom3335872d ago

that picture is reason enough for me to switch.

decapitator5872d ago

dude, I was just thinking that too.

Lord Anubis5872d ago

i was about to say that. You beat me to it.

have you seen the new firefox logo?

decapitator5872d ago

yeah, that would have probably gotten changed by the admins. Good thing you did not use that.

Homicide5872d ago (Edited 5872d ago )

If I switch do they send me the girl on the picture?

XD

shine13965871d ago

hmm...I can see where your coming from...

Ashira5872d ago

Bunch of crap, I say.
IE is not that integrated after XP SP2. IE7 does not crash at the said page. ActiveX controls don't run without your permission (again, after XP SP2).
No, IE is not good, but the site is overdoing it.
(Not to mention the pictures has nothing to do with the contents of the actual site.)

Lord Anubis5872d ago

obviously you are not up to date on technology nor IE7 holes.

Breakfast5872d ago

my internet explorer crashed all the time...thats why i switched to firefox...i run vista by the way

LinuxGuru5871d ago

The chick is wearing a shirt with the firefox logo on it.

It's clearly there, you just have to not look at her tits for a few seconds to see it.

Ashira5871d ago

Lord Anubis, you obviously missed my point. Yes, IE7 is full of holes, but the site is making too much fuss of it. The link didn't crash. ActiveX controls does not install by default.
The site's contents is clearly not 100% correct. But they are right that it's better to switch to Firefox and that IE is targeted often and is full of holes.

Ranking the Devil May Cry Series

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."

Beloved Strategem Still Broken as Helldivers 2 Players Plead to Devs

Some Helldivers 2 players are frustrated with some content still being broken, so read this article to see what that is all about.

TwoPicklesGood1d ago

Some?? Try all. Mechs are bugged, many weapons are useless including the newly renewed ones, stratagems are bugged or weak, we still get stuck in the terrain with no way out, and the list goes on. Good game but they need to fix the issues before doing anything else.
