• It has many malfunctions and inconvenient specification

  UserAccountVXSUDYEDAugust 31, 2015

  Pros

  I wrote all articles to Summary.

  Cons

  I wrote all articles to Summary.

  Summary

  Conclusion: Internet Explorer 11 (IE 11) was broken software. It has many malfunctions and inconvenient specifications. IE 11 is also inferior to IE 8. Never use IE 11. I will write them in detail as follows. IE 11 has only [tab format]. I cannot select [window format]. Although IE 8 has both formats. When I updated to IE 11, some letters were blurred, like an unfocused sight. Although IE 8 can display all characters clearly. The search bar (search frame) in the window was vanished. When I saw it firstly, I thought that [the search bar must be integrated with the URL bar]. But, when I inputted some search keywords into URL bar, IE 11 showed an error message [It cannot be displayed]. Therefore, I cannot search anything forever. Any icons of add-ons could not show on the status bar. So, I returned to IE 8. I strongly recommend for you not to use IE 11.

• DO NOT INSTALL

  flauntmediaNovember 12, 2014

  Pros

  um not worth the hassle

  Cons

  it will rewrite the code to your other browsers making them useless. its sluggish its always sending your browsing history to vendors without your consent even after you have set the setting for them not to share your browsing history. limited access to web based games it will send vendors information related to the type of hardware you have as a computer from component to component

  Summary

  sure its free with a pc operating system, but its pure 100% grade 'A' junk

• Worst Browser

  mike673June 27, 2014

  Pros

  none. I cannot think of a thing good about it.

  Cons

  Internet Explorer 8 continuously locks up webpages.

  Summary

  Don't use Internet Explorer. Use Google or Mozilla Firefox instead. You will be glad you did.

• Internet Explorer 11

  Mike7244November 20, 2013

  Pros

  So far there's nothing good I can find about it, except with Norton I was able to save all of my passwords.

  Cons

  Sucks, its the worst search engine that Microsoft has ever created. I never saw something that has so many flaws. When you do a search it constantly locks up and have to constantly use task manager to shut the tabs down. The live tile version is exactly the same way. Another problem on their home page when you click on the main article tile 90 percent of the time now it doesn't work or the page can't fill itself completely in. They need to fire the creator or whoever created 11 the worst on in their history. When I try to report a problem it's near impossible to let them know. USE CHROME OR FIREFOX. It's such a shame when these idiots tied it into their new search feature but it doesn't work. False advertisement on how great 8.1 is the greatest search ever, NOT.

• "The Download location page is damaged." - Microsoft

  easeltineApril 15, 2013

  Pros

  2013 - One can actually see images in IE 6 if you are going to use this Explorer in older MS operating Systems. In our current world IE4 to IE5.5 are now WORTHLESS! IE 6 is a functional Browser for the FAT32 or NT4/2000/XP Operating Systems by Microsoft.

  Cons

  2013 - IE6 is functional, IF you are some kind of masochist. This is REAL BLOATWARE, as is most MS products! If you use it for a little while it will c _ _ _ out on you.

  Summary

  If you are going to use some kind of multi-OS box, or just fiddle around with an older MS Operating Systems DO NOT use Explorer IE6. The other choices operate better than Explorer in the current Internet world. For example, Firefox 12, Opera 10.63, Netscape 9, and older Sea Monkey are more responsive and in my experience have better graphics than Explorer IE6. One cannot use Chrome w/ anything below Windows 2000 for NT, and also none of the FAT32 OS's. MS Marketing understands that the only way one can spur sales on modern software is to make older software unusable. MS is a master at their art.
