Don't worry, regarding security IE is always left out Opera is my preference by far.
Mozilla/Firefox is the other popular alternative
I'd say they're pretty much equal in security neither one has a track record for security vulnerabilities. |

Both are the same, it's just that if you pay for it you don't have an ad in the toolbars.
Personally I use Mozilla. |

I did pay for my copy of Opera, but thats only because I wanted to support the company 
But as noted above there is no difference in functionality between paid and free, except that the free version does get a banner up in the upper right but they're pretty good about the banners.. not too annoying.
With newer versions you can get banners that are tailored to things you're surfing on based on google search ads. |
