In a good way or a bad way? I liked them from the getgo; but remember a coworker of mine saying about 6 mo after we had office 2007 pushed that "they were growing on him... ... ... like a fungus." 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I'd wave "Bye-Bye" to IE with pleasure - but only with two fingers.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Close... IE has enough thumbs, I suspect.
Even though it has traditionally kept them firmly up it's ...

Why so old a version? Office 2010 doesn't have ribbons and is supported in Windows 10.

I bailed on IE many years ago (~2007) for speed issues - both initial launch and page view. Used Firefox for about a year then Google Chrome was released - been using it ever since.
On those rare occasions where I've used IE or Firefox in the last 6-7 years they just feel old and kludgy. Pretty sure they've both closed the gap in the speed department but Chrome "syncs" across all my devices (Windows PC, Mac, iPhone, iPad and Linux box) and none of the others do yet.
Contrary to popular belief, nobody owes you anything.

Have you un-ticked the "Play animations in web pages" option, and not installed any security updates for a while?
Assume that you clear the Play animations in webpages option on the Advanced tab in the Internet Options dialog box in Internet Explorer 11. When you view a website that contains animated GIF files, the animated GIF files are not displayed. A static image that is the first frame of the animated GIF files should be displayed.
...
To resolve this problem, install the most recent cumulative security update for Internet Explorer.
...
This update was first included in security update MS14-056: Cumulative security update for Internet Explorer: October 14, 2014.

I just opened this with IE. Maybe it's a setting or a version issue.

I don't know that it is a GIF. There are ways in JavaScript to do that. The site does not allow me to see the source.

How could it not be? Right-click the link, save the file. There it is, with all 26 frames.

Window 10 comes with a new browser: Edge. So maybe you can still give it a try when it comes out.

In wine, there is wisdom; in beer there is strength; in water there is bacteria. You decide.

That's a bit awkward because you only have 2 choices according to the ingredients of wine and beer? 
Anyhow : Save Bacteria drink beer!
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");

Gets on self-righteous soapbox...
In wine/beer/liquor, there is cirrhosis of the liver, heart disease, and mild brain damage, and possible jail-time. In water there is life (literally). I choose water.
If you drink too much, and you know who you are, then you know there is no wisdom or strength in drinking alcohol.
