Who's still using Internet Explorer? And why won't they upgrade?
On January 12, 2016, Microsoft is officially dropping support for all but the latest version of Internet Explorer. For a surprisingly high number of laggards, it's time to upgrade or face a world of hurt. So what's holding them back?

At work we recently upgraded to version 11, pretty much because we are still using Windows 7 and it doesn't look like we are upgrading beyond that anytime soon. Especially considering the machines we are working on are 32bit still.

At home I have both computers on Windows 10, which comes with Edge. I only use that if I am unable to use Chrome for something because flash is having issues.

When are they supposed to be doing away with flash?

I quit using IE years ago and haven't regretted it at all. Been using Chrome happily.

I really don't use IE anymore either. When I was new on this forum (and it was on a different server) someone suggested that Firefox worked better with CF.NET so I switched to that and never went back. Now it's either Firefox or Chrome.

I tried Pale Moon for a while which was supposed to be a Firefox alternative that supposedly worked better, but I couldn't tell any difference so I haven't used it in a long time either.

I haven't used Internet Explorer for a very long time. I use Opera 34 most of the time, but also use Chrome 47. Both are fast, stable, and reliable.

IE? What's that? That's soooooo last generation and primitive. We're almost into 2016, not 1996. I only know of Firefox, Chrome, Safari, and for operating systems Android, Ubuntu and iOS 9.2, the only ones I ever hear anyone using any longer.
