Well...here's a little story.

I'm running IE now, and I use it because I finally had to just give in.

A few years ago, I tried both Netscape and IE, and greatly preferred Netscape. It is what I used at home. Problem was, almost every time I installed a new game or other Microsoft software, it would automatically install IE and configure itself to be my primary browser. When I went to uninstall at the "add/remove programs," guess what? It doesn't work with IE. Manually deleting IE always caused problems, because the install put files all over the place. After suffering through this time after time, I finally gave in, removed Netscape, and have used IE ever since.

I was simply not technically capable of doing it any other way. I assume there are others out there like me that ended up doing the same thing.
