A serious scripting hack that can grab passwords (or, potentially, do worse) from any version of Internet Explorer is leading security and malware experts to suggest switching from Internet Explorer to Firefox, Chrome, Opera, or any other browser.

I wholeheartedly suggest that you NEVER use Internet Explorer.  It is the most unsecure browser on the internet.  Mozilla’s FireFox is such a great browser and has so many add-ons and skins that you can use to have it do whatever you want.
