 Browser Update - maltrap
I keep getting messages on my computer telling me my browser should be updated. My computer has Windows Vista & IE9. As i'm not computer savvy i'm reluctant to upgrade unless i have to. I'm used to what i've got, & it suits my needs. The options being offered for free are, Firefox, Opera, Chrome, IE11. Should i switch or leave things alone. If i switch can i revert back to IE9 ? Thanks in anticipation.

you need to switch. IE9 is insecure and will in time start to have issues rendering pages with video clips in.

Firefox or Chrome would be my option.

IE11 would be mine, I upgraded to it as soon as it was available and have no problems whatsoever.

Could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure IE11 will not run on Vista. IE9 was the last browser for that operating system.

Why not? My laptop's been running it for over 5 years.
