Hi guys, I've been using Firefox for a while, but I keep reading that many of u computer experts (especially kevin the tech dude) use IE. My question is, I just updated my system with SP2 and I don't have too much computer know-how, but can any of you guys help me with changing any of my IE settings to make it secure?

Also, since I installed SP2, the Ctrl-Enter shortcut to add the http:// and .com doesn't work!! Any help guys??? Thanks a lot

Regards

internet explorer is probably the best browser to use, especially with SP2 installed. blocks most pop-up adds, and can run any page - most importantly secure sites. i use firefox only for special interest - if you get my drift....(lol)

If you have sp2 there is only 1 windows update for IE. You should probably install it. In sp2 I find IE to be secure with the default settings. But Firefox is just as secure but has more features you can add to it.
