You're coming rather late to the thread - you could just read the first (or
even last) post to see _why_. Basically, a number of Windows-only programs
_require_ IE. I have a couple that do quite nicely with the Mozilla
Active-X control, but some absolutely have to have IE. Some of us still
must use proprietary software for some things. Someone suggested, for this
case, using MoneyDance. Last I checked, that doesn't do the job I need,
but even if it does now, why should I spend money for a different
proprietary solution, when I've already got a legal Windows license and a
purchased copy of Quicken? imo, Windows is no worse than any other
proprietary software.
Beyond that, it's a pretty poor web programmer who doesn't test his pages on
IE.
