I've run side-by-side tests of Chrome and IE9, and Chrome is faster, better stronger.

It'll never be cool, because it's the default and anyone and everyone uses it. This offends 'in' crowds...
Speaking as a web designer and developer, all versions of IE should die this very instant and never return.
I actually just changed from firefox to chrome because it got pretty bad.Kept getting some bug with the plugin manager.I might try IE just to check it out.
I use Firefox and don't really have an opinion about the "coolness" of IE.
BUT on my I'M-SO-SMARTPhone (HTC Mozart) I use Internet Explorer.
Windows Phone 7
Not cool, but at least it's not Apple or frAgmentatioNDROID

When I found out Firefox had tabs, I would never look back. When I found out Chrome treated every tab as a separate process, I would never look back....again.
Used to use Firefox, switch to Opera for a bit, then FF 3 came out and was faster. Then Chrome came out and was awesome. Switched and never looked back. Why should I be interested in switching again - Chrome is great, and Explorer is seriously stigmatised after decades of mediocrity and poor performances.
Been using it ever since I installed 64-bit Windows 7. I even installed Firefox and ran the two together for comparison and went with Internet Explorer.
To maximize performance I have no firewall and no autorun antivirus checker, and I've never had any major issues.

Internet Explorer has only one purpose: To download Firefox!
But if you really want to use it for something else, that's up to you.

OPINION: IE is very bad.
For me it let in pretty much every virus under the sun, changing to chrome has improved my pc health immensely, and I love the minimalist, pure page-space layout of chrome, it is fast enough and I make my own chrome themes.
But each to their own. Not like you have internet-browsing parties every weekend where all your friends judge (Assumption here) so it shouldn't matter.

REAL men use Firefox. Or Chrome.
Nothing's stopping them from using Explorer either.
Women can use them too.
Really now, it's never been "cool" or "uncool" to use a browser. I myself use Firefox, but that dosen't mean that I dislike the others. Use whichever you like.Except for opera
