lololol @ all the people bitching about "AMAGAWD I USE -OTHERBROWSER HERE- WTF" He did say "using"

FAKE @

"We suggest that anyone using IE7 or IE8 "
-points the word USING-

The post never says "HAII GAIZ SWITCH YER BROWSERS". I also like my firefox, but, if you're USING IE, the post says 'better upgrade'. Geez.

I like my Firefox. Chrome seems pretty cool but I really haven't had reason to switch. IE is kinda eh... maybe its gotten better?

Sundance @

Thanks for the info. :) Nice to see that IE is at least trying to keep up with its main competition now.

I'll try it out, but Chrome has yet to fail me!

scathachs @

Thanks for this. I use Firefox religiously, but still need an updated version of IE to test websites in >.<
I wouldn't know of the updates until a year later, if they weren't posted here! xD
So thanks HEAPS! :)

Moran @

Zeppelin @

Internet Explorer works shitty on my computer (constantly freezes) and FireFox crashes a lot too. I've never had a single issue with Chrome so.. I use it for everything.

0

Adventurer @

IE?
I use chrome and firefox.

StarShadow @

I use FF for Subeta but IE for everything else. Have had problems with FF in the past crashing, having to restart my computer & do everything over again so FF isn't perfect. Never had a problem with IE. So I use both now.

Lindsie @

I use FF, I didn't know Chrome was so popular (after reading all these comments).
Good to know for those who are still using IE. If they like it good for them, and they should be informed that there is a newer and safer version.
Thanks Subeta!

Harlot @

@Jesterhead Keith has posted multiple news posts in the past about how Chrome/Firefox are way better, he knows. This is just for people who won't/can't use a different browser for whatever reason.

CastlesInTheSky @

Windows Internet Explorer 8
The world's most popular browser Im guessing thats cause it already on pcs when bought.

I also like there comparisons of FF 4.0 (Beta) Chrome 9.0 (Beta) & IE9
how can they compare a stable release to betas.

Thanks for the heads up! :) I use Chrome, but unfortunately there are some things that won't work on it so I like to keep IE installed as well.

and OMG I LOVE THAT BEAR IMAGE xD

0

Blanche @

xD I'm not sure I'll upload, because regardless of safety stuff (and my love for Opera and FF), IE just lags awfully for me, especially when using php/animated stuff like Subeta... it's really unaffordable :/

YAY GOOD OPTIONS~

Jenni @

I never use IE.
It sucks. ;c unless 9 is super cool.

Who uses IE anymore?

Professor @

Come on Microsoft, turn over the browser to someone who can make it better.
Stick to your OS and whatever else you silly people do. :)

Nice of Subeta to let everyone know, I suppose. Keeps the people using IE still the chance to keep it updated.

0

Anders @

I like my Chrome and Firefox still, I had nothing but trouble with IE when I had it.

0

JiHyun @

...I think i'll stick to Chrome, much faster for the things i do

0

Darkk_AFN @

Won't be able to upgrade anyway... IE9 only works on Vista and above... XP users need not bother as "sorry, no workie for you..."

I use Firefox and Chrome anyway so no worries.

v0id @

For all the commenters that are complaining about IE not being safe:
Do you not realize that the most common way to get viruses is YOUR downloading habits and YOU not knowing wtf you're downloading? You can get viruses with Chrome/FF/Opera the same way you do with IE.

The only reason IE is much more hacked upon/exploited is because it's *popular*. There are exploits and hacks for chrome - they are popular now as well.

I don't think half of you even know what you're talking about for 'safety'. Probably don't even know what a stack/heap overflow is, or what heap spraying is. But I bet you're just jumping on bandwagons about browsers and can't possibly form your own opinion save for aesthetic value.

Persys @

People still use IE? Oh man, I feel so sorry for them. :P Firefox and Opera ftw!

rantana @

Or you could use something other than what your parents use

I hate IE xD

v0id @

Finally, Microsoft caught up.

Too bad I use linux... I doubt this would work under wine!

0

honey_bear @

It's about freakin time an update comes out.

I actually use IE, Firefox and Chrome. Personally for me, some sites such as Subeta and Facebook just seem to load faster on IE than they do the other browsers. But then there are sites that take forever to load on IE, but load fast on Chrome. So I like the option of having those three, so thanks for posting about the update on here :)

ROCK @

lol, the "or you could just use ____ browser" should have been put into the news post too XD

Fray @

Cool :P I still use IE from time to time.. to log into my neo & dA side accounts. ^___^

StarShadow @

I use both IE and Firefox at the same time, especially since Firefox has a lot of problems crashing on and off for me. My computer automatically downloads new versions, but thanks for the info.

IE?

No thanks, Firefox is for me thank you very much. Ted agrees

Snot @

Poor IE users who don't know any better.

Chrome. Get Chrome.

Should Firefox users disregard this then? ._.

I haven't used IE in years, not since my desktop caught a virus when I was browsing deviantART using IE. I've been using Firefox ever since, it's a lot safer in general than IE. Hell, I bet the latest version of FF is ten times safer than this new version of IE

0

Arya_784 @

Ah, Internet Explorer. The number one browser used to download other browsers. I sure as hell don't miss it.

0

Sparrow @

My mum only recently in the past few months switched from IE to chrome after many maaany years of annoying IE, bless her.
Thank you for letting us know, im sure some people on subeta still use IE. :3

70% of people still use IE. 50% of Subeta users use IE.

That's why this is a news post.

Or everyone could just use Chrome (or Mozilla if need be).

Don't forget upgrading from IE6 :P
