There have been a few scares in the past month concerning the secuity of Internet Explorer. The latest recorded keystrokes of log-ins and passwords to popular banking sites - without the user downloading a thing. That was enough for me. Experts agree and recommend to not use IEand switch browsers. One option is to go with Mozilla's Firefox. It's now installed on all of our home computers and will be updated as necessary. There's some great features like tabbed browsing and pop-up blocking. But, there are a few sites that need IE, so there's a handy extension that adds the option to view any page in IE.
