in general i'm opposed to Google because i feel they step into my comfort zone way too much with all of their fine print and data storing. i'll use their search because they've gotten enough on me by now its pointless to switch. but i'm not letting them have any programs on my computer.
Some people are scared of Google but they're not as 'bad' as Microsoft.
Currently, Internet Explorer is the dominant brower. I hope that it doesn't stay this way for ever. Competition is a good thing, I hope Google Chrome does well and firefox and Oper continiue to improve.

I use IE8 and thus far it works. Yes it's designed primarily for those who simply want to access the web without the flexibility of plug-ins. For the real techies who desire plug-ins, IE8 isn't for them as much as Fire Fox would be. But overall, IE8 "should" be more fool-proof and secure than Google Chrome.
