After its decline from being the world's most-used browser to one of the least-used in the space of a few years, Microsoft has finally killed off its Internet Explorer (IE) browser. As of Tuesday, Microsoft ended support for all old versions of IE, including 8, 9 and 10, leaving only version 11, the most recent. Those still using older versions of the much-maligned browser will receive an 'End of Life' notification telling them about the development and urging them to upgrade to IE 11 or Microsoft Edge, a brand-new browser for Windows 10 which is designed to work better with the modern web.

Not completely killed off as IE11 is still supported in Windows 7, 8, 8.1. Mind you if you installed a 'suggested' Windows update you will get regularly reminded that upgrade to Windows 10 is good for you. Of course there may still be lots of web sites which only work well with IE and even tell you to use IE instead of xyz.
Personally I have been using Opera for probably close to 15 years and recently installed Vivaldi. Somehow never really liked Firefox or Chrome. Probably because I don't use a mobile or tablet, but a notebook or desktop.
