Those ‘in the know’ seem to think IE has a few security issues,I am just playing safe LOL
But I have the MS firewall and a very expensive Protector/Anti-virus. I see no need to change from IE. After every net session I clean up with CCleaner. The only virus I’ve had was my own fault when downloading a file.
If I needed to be faster because I may lose £10,000 on the market in the nano-second of saving, then I’d check on the speeds of such things…but I don’t so I won’t.
