It's totally free and walks you through the install process. If you don't like the overhead amounts of space used by Chrome or the Google tracking part (though it is beyond me why you would choose IE as an alternative for those reasons as it is infinitely worse), here's another free browser that works basically identically to Chrome but without those issues: Chromium
If you don't like either of them because they work hit-or-miss with Adobe products such as Flash-based games and pdf viewers on computers with small hard drives such as netbooks, you have my sympathy. I too know that html games are few and far between and that flash games are vastly superior, yet for some reason Chrom* products tend to be temperamental about them. You might like to try Lunescape. Now what's interesting about this browser is that it has three modes: Chrom*, Firefox, and IE. That's right, you can have the fun of experiencing all three from one browser! I find it too bulky and with too many built-in toolbars for my primary use, but it is handy when it comes to running programs that just don't work well with Chrom*. I'm personally not a huge fan of firefox: it doesn't instant update like Chrom*, it is bulky and I never really fell in love with the extensions on it like I did Chrom*. However, I understand that it does have a large and loyal fanbase, and it is a good stepdown browser for people who have only used IE before. That's about it, readers, don't forget to drop me a line. I'm going to eventually update this old blog a bit to make it look more "hip."
