Internet & Networking Following the EU investigation into Internet Explorer's inclusion in Windows, Microsoft made it possible to "turn off" Internet Explorer 8 in Windows 7, by removing the executable and every mention of the browser from the system. According to Opera and Google, this is nice, but not enough.

their desktop browser is shit and nobody likes it.


While I don't agree with requiring MS to include other browsers (I think just being able to remove it is plenty sufficient), I think you are WAY off base here. Whether or not you like it doesn't mean you need to be inflamitory with such foul language. Personally I have been a quite happy Opera user for many years now (tabbed browsing before any other major browser, integrated BT client, etc.).
