Sadly so true. My little brother insists on using IE no matter how much I tell him it's a worthless piece of shit. I always hear the same excuse: "I'm used to it."
I mean, what the hell? What's there to be used to when you open the browser and type the address or choose it from the bookmarks? How difficult can that be?
Changing settings could be different but in my opinion Mozilla, for example, is easier to use. IE's security options just suck. Why were the cookie options separated from the site sorting in IE 6? It all worked somewhat nicely before when you could set all the security settings in one category and sort sites to normal (all cookies and shit disabled) and trusted (can install stuff on your computer).
Hooray M$ if that's their view on making IE better: even more adjusting of settings and even less people bother doing it and therefore have their system filled with spyware.
