A Rant

The new version of Explore, in my opinon, sucks. I am generally a supporter of Microsoft products, but this is just too much. For starters, when you open Explorer now it automatically opens Bing, one of the most worthless search engines I have ever seen, in a separate tab. Maybe there is way to disable this "feature." If there is, I don't know about it.

Second, I have to try to open Explorer numerous times because it usually is just trying to connect but somehow can't do it. And, of course, it is trying to open both its homepage and Bing at the same time.

Maybe it is just me, I don't know. But this is infuriating and I am now using Mozilla Firefox.

Doesn't work like that for me, but I always opt for FIrefox anyway.

Just a thought, maybe the homepage is automatically now set for Bing...that should be easy to change.

It seems to open both the MSN homepage and Bing at the same time in separate tabs. Took me awhile to even figure out that Bing was open. It was when I tried to close the main window and it asked me if I wanted to close all tabs that I realized Bing was up as well.
