In this day and age, it bears repeating over and over again: don’t use Internet Explorer, don’t use Internet Explorer, don’t use Internet Explorer. Never mind that it’s what came with your Windows PC; there are far better browsers. Get Mozilla, get Firefox, get Opera, but please, for your own good, for the good of your PC, and for the good of the rest of the web, please do not use Internet Explorer. (Or at the very least, use it as sparingly as possible, armed with the knowledge that its bloated, noncompliant, insecure architecture is helping to bring down the web.)
