I have had my 64 bit OS for several months now and loving the increased speed and stability of everything that I use. I did not realize until a few moments ago that I had been using the 32 bit version of IE. Now this really has not been a problem, but I did purchase a 64 bit OS and would like to take advantage of it.

Task Manager was also mocking my naivety…

 

So after updating the all the accessible shortcuts in every location I find myself left with 64 bit goodness, hopefully there are no unfortunate side effects!

Unless things have changed, you are going to find yourself using the 32-bit browser again soon. There aren't many 64 bit plugins. For example, as of the last time I looked (admittedly months ago) there is no 64 bit Flash player. That is kind of a good thing, as you will avoid seeing a bunch of advertisements.

That is a great point Ed. I should have realized that my wife is avoiding 64bit Adobe products as the plugins are all 32 bit.
