Microsoft finally got stuck. IE8 started to learn about Firefox's rogue tricks.

When installing Firefox, we asked if we were importing IE data. To tell the truth, this was a "rogue" trick, and it was clear that we had to dig into IE's corners, try to win IE users as much as possible. However, compared with Microsoft, Firefox is just a hairy guy, and no one will pick him up. On the contrary, it will like his thoughtfulness: after all, IE is a browser forcibly bound by Microsoft, at the beginning, everyone used it and accumulated a lot of useful data (such as favorites). With this import function, there is no worries about changing browsers.

However, in the process of installing IE8, we found that IE8 also learned this trick and provided the option to import Firefox Data. Haha, the two sides are competing, benefiting from our users. Of course you are welcome. However, from one side, I felt a sense of crisis at Microsoft: It indicates that IE7 was a very failed update and did not return many users to Microsoft. As a matter of fact, in the past, Microsoft was able to conceal the pressure on XP users to upgrade IE7. Even more ridiculous, when IE7 was launched, what kind of verification and so on could it be done to prevent Mainstream users from installing and using it :)
Good luck for IE8. Because the memory and CPU resources occupied by the disappointing Firefox are too outrageous, so there is no improvement in such a long time, it is time to put some pressure on them.
