The perfect example of why you should switch to Mozilla. 😉

Yup, just like magic. 🙂

A browser is just software that allows you to view web pages. Internet Explorer comes preinstalled on all Windows machines, but you have a majority of other, better choices to use for web viewing. Being a web designer, I have mutiple browsers installed so I can see how pages render in each program. My recomendations for you would be to try Mozilla FireFox or MyIE2 which is IE with some extra features such as tabbed browsing and more. You can read more about them from there websites.
