    Default Did IE upgrade to look like firefox

    I swear I am not computor savvey at all. I only use firefox for the spelling. Heh, you can tell when I use it or not. lol

    But since IE had an upgrade and of course I did that....I can't help to notice that....is this like a copycat of blue colors and styles?

    Anyone else noticed this?

    Or save me the pain and tell me I am losing my mind.

    I am curious to find out the answer, too. I left IE behind because I was having constant errors, all day long. I now use Mozilla almost exclusively.

    I don't know about this newest version of IE, but I know when I did use IE and they said that they upgraded it to be faster, I tried it. It was still SO slow! I 'll have to check into this version and see whats what.

    I never update to IE because of the potential for malware, spyware and the like to use it as a method to infect a system. Even if it does look like Firefox, that shouldn't be a deciding factor. Protecting your privacy from attack/compromise should be. Stick with a non-IE based browser (e.g., Firefox, Opera, Safari, etc.) to ensure security in the long run.
