Because IE is insecure, does not have popup blocking, lacks many other features Mozilla does have and supports W3C standards better. Plus, it comes with a mail client that is more secure than outlook and has a well working spam filter built in.

So apart from what's not in bold text above, you're saying that IE is a better browser?

Work on that syntax, son. ;)
