I am sticking to Opera, Firefox & WinXP.....and learning about Linux as fast as I can. Micro$oft is rapidly heading toward online programs that THEY control, with very little software left that is YOUR choice.

Vista and 64 bit machines already refuse to run certain programs. I have only opened IE about twice in 2-3 years.

There are reasons for this...it is not just paranoia. Go read and look and decide,
