Has anyone updated to IE11. Any comments or feedback?

I'm still using XP. The latest I can use if IE8.

Another good reason to run Firefox. IE8 will not open a lot of things
but Firefox will. (Bill Gates trying to sell more product)


I've had Firefox run into problems opening Microsoft stuff. But I like Firefox. Never had any
problems with it, although it is slow to open compared to IE8.

I do also have one computer running XP SP3 with multiple browsers
installed, and by using a stop watch, I measured and compared the time
to open IE and Firefox after clicking the shortcut.

After doing this test 5 times for each browser, I got the following
results:
- IE (version 8.0) opened in 1.37 seconds in average.
- Firefox (version 25.0.1) opened in 3.16 seconds in average.
