I know someone who used to refer to IE as "Internet Exploiter", "Internet Exposer", etc.

I would call it "Internet Exploded", which I think I stole from Computer Stupidities somewhere

At least stuff like "Microsquat", "Microshit", and "Micro$oft" doesn't seem to be as common anymore

I came up with "Macrohard Losedows -98" or some such back in the Windows 98 days.

I'm a Windows fan now though, in general.

I was wondering what the hell that squid thingy is.

So, people with IE can't see Ikachan? Huh.

I think because Ikachan uses CSS that is unsupported in Internet Explorer, or something like that

I'm an Xp user. Years in the future... Windows XP will survive!

Stupid Micro$oft Internet Exploder can't render much, but it can render slightly more now that it has arbitrarily increased version number.

But I hate it for not having the menu bar in the right place.

But this fixes it (also in IE 8) so maybe the menu bar problem isn't too bad.

I mainly use IE, because I'm too lazy to use anything else. I'm probably going to switch to Opera soon, but now I'll stick with my current browser.

Oh Ikechan, you do make me laugh. You hate IE so you make yourself incompatable to its programming. I'm so glad I can see you using both Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome.

I wish the ikachan would run on my PC but it keeps bugging out!

Played it once but I want to play it again!

Unfortunately, IE 9 won't come out for years, probably... (I think it's being developed at the same time as Windows 8, AFAIK)

Besides, it'll still suck and be behind the other browsers in terms of compatibility

IE isn't all bad, but yeah, it is, actually. I've been thinking of switching to Opera sometime, but I've been busy.

I don't get why people use IE at all. I think FF is better in every damn way. :/

I remember when they used to ship Macs with Internet Explorer rather than Safari, back during the days of Mac OS 8 and 9, as well as early OS X

The last version of IE for Mac came out in what, 2003? But seriously, they should've dumped Trident and switched Windows IE to Tasman

Most people I know that use IE are told by my school that FireFox is more prone to getting viruses along with being slower and more bug filled. Lies, I tell them all, lies.

I think any alternative to IE is better than IE itself. I tried browsing the internet once and I was so annoyed by all the safety pop-ups and alerts.

On the topic subject: Ahh, that's who that squid is. Go Ikachan go! Show them IE users why they should convert!
