Opinion: Despite the browser's well-reported security problems, Internet Explorer still has changed the world for the better.
Microsoft's Internet Explorer turns 10 on Wednesday. That's 10 years, not the version number, which is just now approaching 7. While it's arguably the most important piece of software to hit user desktops during the decade, its arrival has been a mixed blessing. Some may consider it a curse.
Internet Explorer has influenced Windows to some extent and even changed the way we connect to our data files. At the same time, it's also paved the way for plenty of problems on the security front.
