I personally liked IE8. However, there are a lot of crashes during a certain time so I switched. I'll probably go back to IE8 once I found the problem, but using chrome for now.

IE IS EVIL!!!

More seriously, I have always found IE to be seriously clunky compared to be Firefox and Chrome. Microsoft seems to be copying Firefox and Chrome, and they are not doing such a good job of it either. Corporations like IE, but I find it to be the most awkward between the three. And please do not get me started on its other issues...

I use IE for my PC and FF for my laptop....

Far more used to the IE interface since I use PCs 99% of the time...

Really? I don't find it much slower than Chrome, as far as now.

IE actually gets good results with speed, the problem is the security and features, or most likely, the reputation it had in the past

Security? What security? Oh, you mean it "features" no security, right?

Like?

Depends on your hardware....

Works ok for me....I get my webpages within 2 seconds at most. Normally far less than that

Only problem I can see is security and that can be compensated for with your own antivirus

Well, if you are like me and you only go to Anime Forums, YouTube, news networks, Facebook/Twitter, Wikis and Comedy Central, you probably won't get one.

I'm the same way, except my list goes more like Facebook, school related stuff (only direct links from teacher), wikis, and a few 'other' sites. I don't particularly have to worry much of a virus, if I feel like I'm about to do something stupid that can cause me a security breech, I just do it on my iPad; alot easier to just throw that out my window on the highway. :roll:

As long you take the precautions, it'd be OK.

I am thinking of an analogy here, but it needs to stay in my head. Let me just say that taking precautions is not always good enough.
