Website Review by: onkar     


What is the error that has crept onto my Internet explorer ? Why does it not work?Is it
a virus, spyware or my computer has gone bad? Whom should I talk to? How can I fix it? these are the set of probable questions that come into the minds of people using the internet on the most common web browser in the world..yes the internet explorer.Microsoft has been so successful in penetrating its Operating system;The Windows and its Browser the Internet Explorer on millions of computers around the world.
From Big corporate Houses to Home computers Microsoft has ruled the roost for sometime now?why? the answer is simple ,It is easy to use and unsderstand and more importantly it is the most common one.However, once there is a problem with the browser ranging from security settings to pop ups to any problem we end up scratching our heads and ask ourselves the same old question..What can I do to fix it?or perhaps Who can fix it?
Can I get something from Microsoft to fix it? Well an option is available in the form of Support.Microsoft.com which has a mindboggling database for solutions to the problems But can I get a solution to my problem from here..The answer is perhaps No if I am not tech savvy as most of us are not.Most of us may be good with the usage of the computer but not great with the technical stuff.
The website should have been a boon for most of our common problems but it does not give us the solution for most of our general problems which we need support for rather it asks for thje error messages or some technical things which most of us cannot understand.So what is the use of support when most of microsofts customer base cannot understand the support available or in some cases cannot even search the relevant problem on the web page.
Reaching the top is a great achievement but if you have to stay at the top then you need to constantly reinvent yourself and improve all the time..its high time that microsoft understands that if it has to staty at the top then providing user friendly software would not do they have to give user friendly support also or there competitors who have chased them for all these years will get ahead.
