As a network administrator I implore you to do all you can to distance yourself from IE as much as possible and try your best to forget it ever existed.

viper i said ,i was a chrome user,till windows8 modern ie,i love it:PPPPP that smooth scrolling  and full screen browsing are ravishing me:P

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.
