Doesn't surprise me... thoughts? :rofl2:

Perfectly understandable. Anyone who is barely computer literate and just goes out and buys a PC, will just use whatever is already on the PC, which is Internet Explorer.

What I found interesting was that Firefox users scored higher than anyone else on the IQ tests.

If it wasn't already obvious, this study shows proof. IE is a piece of shit and FF rules!

Wasn't this already widely known? Bill Gates once said the average computer user (in other words Windows user) has the IQ of a spidermonkey. It seems he was right on the money.

That its a pointless survey that is far from scientific.
Why was this study commissioned?

How stable is the newest version of Internet Explorer? I used Internet Explorer for about two hours when i first got Windows 7, but when the damn thing crashed about five times in those two hours i just gave up on it and have only used Firefox since then.

Actually, according to the study, Opera users were ranked highest.

I didn't read the whole thing. I stopped after this part:

The overall chart shows that Firefox has the smallest percentage of low-IQ users, and the largest of average or high-IQ users.

Considering this, how would Opera beat FF?

I rather prefer opera, despite the near complete lack of plugins like FF. ATM I'm actually super pleased with the android browser. Google might know EVERY last fucking thing I'm doing but their program works pretty intuirively and doesn't eat my memory too fast unlike the ff`s , seaminkeys and such of the world.

Internet Explorer is also a great source of viruses and other cyber attacks. :thumbsup:
