It is not clear when the comparison chart was published but it made the rounds on Reddit earlier today. A comparison chart created by the developer of one of the web browsers that are part of the comparison is surely not the best way to get an objective opinion and result of the capabilities of the web browsers.

What Microsoft did goes one step further as the results look beyond belief even for inexperience users or die hard Internet Explorer fans. To put it plainly: Internet Explorer 8 beats Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome in seven of the ten categories including security, privacy, reliability and ease of use.

Internet Explorer is as good as Google Chrome and Firefox in the last three categories that include performance, customizability or web standards. Each category contains a short comment as to why Internet Explorer outranks or ties the competition. The security comment for example states that “Internet Explorer 8 takes the cake with better phishing and malware protection, as well as protection from emerging threats”.

I suggest you take a look at the chart yourself to see what it’s all about. Let us know what you think about!
