OK, so Internet Explorer and Firefox are my main browser combo on my computers.

But I'm wondering how other people's experience on IE11 is. On my tablet it works relatively fine, but on my laptop it occasionally chokes on odd things. (admittedly, I may have messed up something a while back fiddling with things. Explorer often restarts.)

So I'm just wondering if many people still see the bad IE7 experience of old or whether its become a force to be reckoned with as some believe/scoff at.

I really only use IE11 on desktop for troubleshooting issues with Mobile Nations.

Otherwise I use Firefox Nightly on my desktop PCs. I also like Firefox, since I run Linux, in addition to Windows, and IE is only available for Windows. I prefer a browser that is cross-platform.

I have a number of probs with IE.
On the Surface RT it's dog slow...very frustrating.

Desktop it acts ok yet it still blocks certain content.
This could be user installed problems however.

I find IE to be very usable on the phone now with recent improvements/changes.

I love browsing internet (lol I just browse wpcentral ,I can post my internet explorer history lol ) on my desktop and new Lenovo flex 10 netbook. IE 11 is fluid because I don't have any add-ons enabled , try disabling flash player from manage add-ons list. It syncs my opened tabs , browsing history and saved passwords across all my windows 8.1 devices and windows phone 8.1 smartphones.
