NIS 2009 and Quality of Security with IE 6.

Archive

Hi all -

 

I am running Windows XP (SP3) and IE 6 with NIS 2009.

 

Personally, I dislike the implementation of IE 7 on XP. It is cumbersome and slow, IMHO.

 

However, I have encountered some websites that take control over IE 6 and question how many people out there are having problems with the quality of security that NIS 2009 can provide.

 

For example:

 

1) Why do I still get pop-ups on many sites?

 

2) Why do some sites take control of IE 6 and bring up multiple other windows, trying to initiate an "attack" by degrading system resources?

 

3) How can I make my system even more protected, with NIS 2009 program "options," yet still functional?

 

NIS 2009 does a very good job, but it is not perfect. Then again, IE 6 isn't perfect, either.

 

Any ideas?
