That the power of monopoly, I guess. For me IE is good enough, I can work with it and I don't have much problems with it. Also the computers at home are used by the whole family. I can't decide alone to change and so I'll probably never change browser unless it's due to virus problems. If I'm not mistaken most virusses are aimed at holes in Windows and IE. (And let's face it, even the Windows patches come with holes at times. )
