How to upgrade your browser

Home » Lessons » How to upgrade your browser

Keeping your Internet browser up-to-date is important for both security and ensuring that web pages load properly. We also recommend that you update any plug-ins, extensions, or other add-ons you have installed.

If you are using an out-of-date web browser, please upgrade your browser to one of these free and up-to-date options.

Why do I need an up-to-date browser?

There are three reasons why you should consider updating your web browser.

• Security
  Older web browsers may have security defects that render them vulnerable to viruses and other forms of attacks. Upgrading to a current web browser will provide better protection from these threats.
• Performance
  Current web browsers are faster, more usable, and more stable.
• User Experience
  Today’s websites use technologies such as HTML5 and CSS3, which are not fully supported by older web browsers. By using an out-of-date browser, you may not be able to access all the content and features that are available.
