Fffffft. I started using Firefox version 0.8 in 2004!

remember when opera was really good and awesome and then firefox came out with add-ons or w/e and it owned and now opera is like based on chrome or something now #browserchat
Having spent all morning trying to fix a compatibility issue in the version of IE that everyone at the Welsh Government uses (8), I don't care if they all go down in flames.

This is the exact same situation with me.

IE hate is the antiquated thing around here. What is this, 2006? IE hasn't been that bad for a while (I never have issues with site load times). I use Chrome and IE simultaneously at home. Not because of any security or cookie reason, but because I like having tabs on one browser (for things I keep open permanently) and not on another (for most other things). I'm very particular about such things. Also, someone has to spot the things at EoFF that don't work in IE. I use IE at work because it's work, and that's what work gives us.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
Remember to keep any browser you use updated. Similar vulnerabilities have been found in Chrome and Firefox too in the past few days, though they do have bugfixes out in their most recent updates whereas Microsoft is still working on one for IE, last I heard.
Flash Player is another thing you should update if you have it.
And of course, be sensible about what links you follow - don't just mindlessly click whatever link you're sent, whether it's in an email from an unknown sender or in chat from a trusted friend. If you don't visit a site that takes advantage of this vulnerability, you'll be okay (in this case).
So let me get this straight, my friend. In the Year of Our Lord Two Thousand and Fourteen, you are honestly, without a trace of irony, defending Internet Explorer. I am not entirely sure how to process this. I mean I know you do, because you're Lonny Bob, but my brain rejects the information whenever I'm not faced with it because how can someone be so deluded?
I also believe you meant to say "I'm very autismal about such things." because damn son, that's autismal. Have you considered trying Zac Browser instead? It might be well suited to such a degree of sperginess.
Finally, no, nobody has to spot the things at EoFF that don't work in IE. We've been over this before and every single person in the world except for you agreed that people still using IE instead of a browser that isn't terrible don't deserve to use our forums. Even people who use IE exclusively agreed they were the inferior race and should not be given consideration.
IE ain't so bad these days. Still not the best browser, but not deserving of any categorical dismissal, really. I agree with BoB - IE hate seems a bit antiquated these days. And I say that as a web developer, quite possibly the group of people worst afflicted by IE's terribleness of yore!
IE is usually associated with gaping security holes, which is a little unfair. Adobe is also noted to have awful security. I'm sure if Firefox and Foxit were the leading software used by the majority of people then we'd be hearing similar things said about those softwares re: security.
Having said that, I still think IE and Adobe suck, and try not to use them unless forced, because of the same reason. Popular software is more commonly targeted by criminals. It doesn't help that many (most?) workplaces don't bother to update their software (or wait months to do so), leaving their users and data at risk.
Well well well, the Swede reveals his true colors.
