I'm not sure I'd agree with the derogatory names, though I
do endorse using browser(s) other than IE.
It seems that the recent announcement of a major US
university encouraging the use of alternative browsers,
combined with the US federal agency proclaiming much
the same a few months back, are exceptional arguments
against the Redmond giant's addled browser.

I use, enjoy, endorse, and customize the dickens
out of the Opera browser(www.opera.com).
I can disable/enable Flash content on a
site-by-site basis with a single mouse-click,
among countless other useful tweaks.
