It's OK.
Not as good as Safari generally.. or Firefox, but it's one of the most useful applications for those stupid websites which fail to conform to any sort of standard.
Like, administrating a Cisco Pix using PDM - forget it in anything but IE, it just sucks.. same with a lot of Cisco "web interfaces" - some are just unusable (Like the 857 SDM).
So yea.. it has it's place.

Someone do that.
Then we can list which is best
When you paste the: From the 43 selectors 26 have passed, 10 are buggy and 7 are unsupported (Passed 357 out of 578 tests) line, also say which browser and version it is

Why bother using it though? IE is a massive target for malware, so there is a much bigger chance of a security breach and when a security flaw is found, Microsoft are extremely slow to patch it.
Recent vulnerabilities include Cross-Site Scripting, so its open to phishing attacks, still not patched by MS, There is a Arbitrary Content Disclosure Vulnerability, which can disclose sensitive information from your browser.
Also, the mishmash of ActiveX, scripting, and its integration with Vista means it is more vulnerable to attack, in comparison to other browsers.
It isn't standards-compliant, and MS appear to have nothing but their own interests at heart. Standards are there to benefit the Internet as a whole, MS have purposely turned there backs.
The benefits of using IE are too few - and the faults too great
If someone is going to use it though, set this as your homepage>
