What’s wrong with old browsers?<\/h3>\n

Old browsers (especially Internet Explorer versions 6, 7 and 8) are less stable and more vulnerable to viruses, spyware, malware and other security issues. Which is obviously great problems to worry about, especially for those who shop online.<\/p>\n

Old browsers are slow and more likely to crash<\/h3>\n

First, old browsers are very slow. Every web page that is loaded in a browser, perform a variety of tasks. One of these tasks is to download different files. These files contain images, scripts, and other resources that help to improve the look and functionality of the site that you are visiting. Old browsers do not perform these tasks at the same speed as new browsers. This means that your Web experience is much slower and can sometimes even cause the browser to crash or freeze.<\/p>\n

Old browsers can not display many new websites<\/h3>\n

Another problem with the old browser is that their display capabilities are very limited. For example to display a simple animation of an older web browser, the person who creates the site to either use an embedded video or Flash file (like those found on YouTube), or a lot of extra programming languages (JavaScript). In both cases, this means that the page will take much longer to load, which jams or is stiff down the browser and your website experience.
\nThe new browser supports new web technologies (HTML5 and CSS3). These languages form the basis of many websites today. But unfortunately, many of these new websites not look or function properly if you visit them in an old browsers.<\/p>\n

Why is new browsers better?<\/h3>\n
