Choice bits in the comments include
"Now it will incorrectly render my pages twice as fast!"
...refering, of course, to Internet Exploder's infamous lack of standards compliance:

One guy mentions IE doesn't have extensions like AdBlock for the Mozilla family.
The response is "IE also has a lot of add ons.
Browse the web with it for a while and you will effortlessly collect lots of them."
...refering, of course, to the easily-infected nature of that dreck
due to e.g. ActiveX and Browser "Helper" Objects
--as well as the way it passes those infections on to the OS.
