Nope. You did something. Please tell us the "spell" you are using.

It's the risk you are taking that is the issue. Not usability. |
As network security administrator I say to you that the risk lies entirely with the user and the implemented security policies. 99.999% of all attacks through the browser are not via the browser's backdoors but irresponisble user behavior and weak security policies. Another browser doesn't make you automatically safer.
In fact, I found the IE be even more stringent in keeping the user in check than let's say Chrome, regarding active elements on websites and downloads.
I'm not endorsing IE because it's a pain to work with but it certainly has an undeserved bad rep when in comes to security. When those security concerns come from users using older versions. I can assure you that using an older version of Chrome and Firefox carry their own security risks. A person using a new version of IE is not less safe than any other up to date browser. In fact, in some companies it's even preferably thanks to the windows integration.
If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.
BTW internet explorer of my windows phone is just shit. I don't get it. Why cant Microsoft make a better web browser.

Can happen. Personally I've grown up with Apple computers ever since 1995... Not sure why exactly though, just happened that our first home computer was a Mac. So to me, Windows was actually the 'exotic' choice.
Basically only ever had a PC in my life for games, and a couple of programs needed for school/studies that weren't on Macs .

IE is more vulnerable than either Chrome or Firefox. Security patches are not released as fast. Chrome and Firefox are often patched the day after a vulnerability is found. IE takes weeks and sometimes months to see a patch released.

Fully agreed about users being the bigger issue. But time to patch is one that a user doesn't control and is the reason IE is still less secure.
