I don't get why Opera doesn't get more love.

I like Chrome a lot...but...
1. Randomly freezes when I have multiple tabs open. Sometimes for 30-40 seconds, then it unfreezes.
2. YouTube videos don't always work. I get that 2 second shit where it starts loading and buffering the video but never goes past the a couple seconds.
3. Randomly doesn't remember my shit. A couple message boards it forgets I always want to be logged in, sometimes it mixes up a password I have on one forum with another (same username).
4. On my PC at work I have it loaded and many times I right click on a pic and go to SAVE AS and nothing happens. This really pisses me off.
5. Honestly....that's actually it.
I love just about everything else about it. So I'm forced to use both Firefox and Chrome, because when things don't load in Chrome or freeze in it, I have to have Firefox open so I don't go insane and consider uninstalling it.

What is so fucking bad about Internet Explorer that warrants such abhorrences? Inferior security features? Lack of aesthetic appeal? Anything a casual internet user should panic about, so that one can download the sacred firefox browser (or other alternatives) with haste(the question isn't directed at you btw)?
I moved over from Mozilla 3.0 to full time Chrome about a week ago and so has a few of my other friends. I have been using Chrome since launch...mainly checking for cross browser compatibility when web designing. I soon feel in love.
My friends and I are all fairly knowledgeable with technology (as I am sure many of us are on these forums) and I would say the largest downside is 3rd party add-ons are not present at the moment with Google Chrome, but that will soon change.
I found Chrome to be far better and dealing with websites with a high about of JavaScript and flash. In many situations I will have multiple tabs open of videos and a websites (which of course as a few JavaScript running) and my older computer would not handle is on IE, Mozilla, or Safari (they allocate resource poorly when dealing with JS and Flash), while Opera and Chrome do a wonderful job.
There are many other great freatures, but this is the one I seem to notice more often then not. I have enjoyed Chrome and for now I am sticking with it.
