You might be pleasantly surprised at IE9. It has auto-speed checking at startup to tell you which add-ons are causing issues with speed, and it has a similar minimalist view as Chrome.

It was genuinely foreign at first. But the incredible speed was appealing from day one and now I can't stand to use anything else. Every once in a while I fire up Firefox if a site or web app can't be run in Chrome, but it's annoying how long it takes just to launch FF, even without all add-ons uninstalled. I haven't used IE in years, although when a new version comes out I install it. It just seems to get clunkier with each new version. If someone were designing a browser for three year olds, IE would be it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rod Trent" <[email protected]> To: "NT System Admin Issues" <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, February 18, 2011 11:25 AM Subject: RE: IE9 RC released > Interested in why folks don't like Chrome...maybe I'm missing something > other than the obvious "It's Google - they want to own you" debate. > > -----Original Message----- > From: Angus Scott-Fleming [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Friday, February 18, 2011 1:00 PM > To: NT System Admin Issues > Subject: Re: IE9 RC released > > On 11 Feb 2011 at 9:43, Steven Peck wrote: > >> Much dislike for chrome.
