Internet explorer has been shamed from birth.
Used to kill netscape, forced onto all my windows servers. Why the hell does Microsoft think it is essential to have a web browser on a server ?

It has always been playing catch up with alternatives like opera and firefox/mozilla. It's features are primative when compared to said browers.

I hate internet explorer but not because it is a shite browser but because of all the web sites that are "internet explorer only" run by web developers that have never heard of standards.
