From the Dark Side--Browse Happy, Dump IE

Kick the M$ Internet Explorer habit. A new campaign from the Web Standards Project (WaSP) named "Browse Happy" has the goal of convincing people to dump Microsoft's Internet Explorer. It encourages people to use alternatives like Mozilla, Firefox, Opera and Apple's Safari according to this CNet article.

WaSP cited recent recommendations by the U.S. Computer Emergency Readiness Team--a computer security partnership between the U.S. government's Department of Homeland Security, the public sector and private sector--against using IE because of its security problems.
