I assure you that Bing maps is more accurate than Apple maps.

I thought this was about Internet Explorer.
IE does not run on iOS devices.
Apple maps only run on iOS 6 devices.
Who said anything (before you) about Apple maps?

You have to read the thread posts from start to finish to get the context.

Basically they said each one was best for something specific. The concensus is that Internet Explorer is best for security and averageman browsing.

I think you meant IE is worst for security:

This was just last month:

Germany urges public to stop using Internet Explorer | Reuters

Security Alerts - Secunia


Don't get me wrong, while I don't use windows, I do like IE. I actually think it's a decent browser. I just wouldn't go around calling it the best for security. That might really confuse people.

I didn't call it the best security. I was referencing reviews that said it.

Reviews are a dime a dozen so we can all find reviews that say X, Y or Z.

I don't have time to link them. It's pointless anyway because reviews are a dime a dozen and we can all find reviews that say X, Y or Z.

oh ok wasn't trying to argue.

There are recent security issues with Firefox and Chrome as well, no such thing as a perfect browser. If you dive into your web browsing career thinking the web browser you chose is going to keep you safe, you're in for a rude awakening. Use the browser you want, with a good dose of common sense and maybe some security add-ons, and you can be safe with any browser.

Yes there are - Mozilla pulled it within 24 hours - Firefox pulls newly released upgrade for 'critical' vulnerability

I use IE9 x64 & IE10 x64 only. Just my preference.

So now instead of the stupid Apple vs Windows posts we have IE is better than FF/Safari/Opera/Chrome...

Does anyone really care what other people use for a browser?

Not really, but I do take issue with the people who claim doom and gloom if you use any other browser than the one they suggest.
