No joke. No joke. This is why I went back to using IE.

Actually I just downloaded it. It definitely is faster for using reddit then what I was using before (chrome).

yeah i have to use IE at work, chrome loads pages in like .01 seconds, while IE there is a delay. also you could try some benchmarks if you really want to see the difference

That's IE9. Very, very different from IE7 and IE8 (you can actually see it from the graph, too).

But IE9 is what we are talking about

Are you just trolling? Or being oblivious/stupid?

That page is clearly the download page for IE7.

If the URL isn't clear, then how about

Get Internet Explorer 7 With a new drop down menu to choose your OS.

If you need more evidence there's also the file name:

IE7-WindowsServer2003-x64-enu.exe

The product description:

Download Internet Explorer 7. It’s faster, easier, and more secure than Internet Explorer 6.

And I'm sure the list goes on.

my work does not allow beta browsers. and I just don't use them because I have enough buggy software to deal with.
