Microsoft Internet Explorer 9 problems

If you are thinking of upgrading from Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 (or earlier) to version 9, think twice and very hard.

My experience (and that of others) is that not only is it more complex to use (like several Microsoft upgrades including Word 2007), some websites (including the Natland one) do not always work properly with IE9 whereas there was no problem with IE8.

An alternative is to use Chrome which is the favourite browser of a lot of computer literate people because it is much simpler and faster.  Firefox is also recommended by many for similar reasons although personally I have not tried it.
