The Web browser is the lens through which we look at the virtual world, and the medium by which we connect, learn, share and collaborate. The browser you choose is responsible for providing you with the necessary tools to manage your online life, and to protect your privacy and security.

This site was created as a place to learn, discuss and share the issues around choosing your browser. Join us!

about browser choice

If you’re a Windows PC user in Europe and use Internet Explorer as your default browser, you’ll see a screen in Internet Explorer asking you to choose your browser. It’s an important opportunity to take control of your online life and make a decision that has implications on your privacy, security and how you use the Web.

We encourage you to think about what matters most to you about your browser. Is it protecting your privacy? Security against viruses and other threats? High performance? Unique features? Take time to understand the options on the <a>Browser Choice screen</a> so you can make an informed choice.

the facts

We commissioned a study* to better understand what people know about browsers and the various options that are available. This study was conducted in six European countries, and we’ll be sharing the results with you over the next few weeks. Stay tuned.

* Study conducted by Ipsos MORI in France, Germany Italy, Poland, Spain and UK.
