There was a lot of updates, something like 16 thousand articles, and it took about 5 minutes. Mike.. was suspicious.

So.. I see nothing wrong, but when I open Internet Explorer, I'm sent to a Microsoft home page. Not good. My home page is normally set to Google.com. It is when I immediately check my internet settings. Some folks hate IE9 but I have no problem with it and I don't find the other browsers all that much faster. Google Chrome has a good market share right now, but if you combine IE8 with IE9 users, Internet Explorer is still the majority by a long shot, something like 58% (or more, depending on which site you believe in) to G-Chrome's 23%. I did some tests and IE9 was a few microseconds slower in loading, but I get better compatibility across the board with it, but the argument here of which browser is better is getting off-track, and I use a desktop PC because music creation and recording and pretty much anything useful is much better on a PC than a laptop or tablet for multiple audiophile reasons by a mile (whereas if you're a pure "consumer" and just look at FB and porn and email you'd be better-off with a tablet).

I used this back in 1988. It was amazing at the time, and I was in my second year of college at U-Mass at Lowell. |

Wow. I never use IE (I use Chrome. It works well, and I haven't had any compatibility issues yet) so I opened IE up after reading your post just to check it out and see if they slipped me a Mickey. Well, turns out I now have IE10 without ever consenting to installing it. Those sneaky bastards.
