Yep.... I like its interface (I don't mean the candy-like buttons,
but the overall feeling....) Very fast to use and all that. But
unlike the most of Mac software, IE puts half of itself inside System
Folder. Very hard to remove, if you have to do that...
Many sites don't even show up on Mac-IE. That's because broken HTML
viewing of IE 4.5. That's fixed in IE 5, but the JavaScript browser
detectors usually ignore the version number of your Mac-IE... Very
annoying... So I found out easier to use Netscape as the default
browser. (I tried out iCab too for a while... Not a bad alternative,
at all...)
And Netscape is better in web site maintaining. Shift+Reload is the thing! ;)
I had a strange problem with IE, too: After some time, it just
corrupted. Launching IE freezed the whole machine. This happened with
two different installations... Now it has worked fine. Then again,
it's not my primary browser anymore... I use IE only for sites with
CSS font size problems. IE's default font size is the same as in the
pc-IE. In other Mac browsers, the fonts are a couple of points
smaller than in pc. Wathing 9pt font on a Mac is impossible.
Unreadable greek text.

Well, it's good. It has some security issues (surprise) and it's hard
to uninstall. Some system stability issues may arise, too.

Uuh... I don't want to know...
