IE, Mozilla, Netscape. Everyone has their preference. A lot of people scream about IE because of netware, spyware, virus or another malicious programs out there. Disney has obviously, for some reason unknown to the rest of us, decided to partner with Microsoft on this one. I don't really see it as that big of a deal. If you're an avid fan of another browser but want to use Disney's product, then open IE and set your browser homepage to TT. Never use it to browse anywhere else. How long are you really on IE when playing TT? Two minutes? Less? Long enough to load the installer launcher and then you're into the regular game interface that everyone sees. And I haven't heard of anyone ending up with a virus from play.toontown.com as of yet. Control your browsing, use your favorite to go anywhere else on the web...happy compromise. Maybe Disney will choose to optimize their game for other browsers down the road, but I'm not holding my breath. IE seems to serve their purposes beautifully.
