    Why would a troll wear a uniform?

    I guess maybe he was uninformed with regards to the troll dress code.

    IE works fine for me. No viruses, no pop-ups, and it works great for everything I need it to do.

    Apparently, you don't browse.

    You should teach them a lesson by boycoting their free registration.

    Opera is simply the best porn browser ever.

    It blocks pop-ups.
    It doesn't get infected with ActiveX crap.
    It notifies you of phishing attempts.
    It can zoom the images.

    Best of all: one handed browsing - you have a page with a lot of image links, you click the first and then just press space to go to the next link. Also works with pages where the next link is marked with Next or with >. Quite handy when you have only one hand to spare.
