I always curse myself for continuing to use Internet Explorer. It's a really crappy product and there are many, many better options. I use a Mozilla project called Firebird quite often and have just made it my default browser. It has a lot of cool plug-ins and does a great job blocking IE's annoyances.

The last straw though was my entry about the five best songs of 2003. By looking at my stats I could tell that many people weren't seeing the thumbnails of the album covers. I quickly figured out why. I had used a "\" instead of a "/" in the file path. IE was "smart" enough to reverse the slash. That's just stupid. There's such a thing as being too forgiving. So now that I'm IE free I'm much happier and will probably make my page more Netscape friendly in the near future.
