I have to admit that I went six months blissfully unaware of the problems a broadband user using Internet Explorer (IE as it shall now be known) experiences. It was not until I found my computer running slower, displaying irritating and often-inappropriate pop-up advertisements and crashing on frequent intervals despite regular security downloads from Microsoft.
