A comprehensive study of web users has determined that the dumber you are, the more likely you are to use Microsoft Internet Explorer.

Well considering IE is the default browser in Microsoft computers it is not surprising that those with lower IQ's use it instead of seeking out some better alternatives.

Actually now that I think about it most of my family uses IE

On my Mac, I am glad I moved to Firefox. Safari did not always work as well as Firefox.

Unfortunately at work we still have internal sites that require you to use IE.

There is a plugin for Firefox that will open an IE tab in Firefox.
