Most modern browsers has evolved to have a checkbox in each alert box that allows user to block displaying next messages.

Internet Explorer creator hasn't found need for such functionality.

If you want to see an effect of that, you only need to create a new HTML page or edit existing one and put such simple code somewhere inside:

<script>
    function whyIECreatorsAreMorons() {
        var elem = document.getElementsByTagName('');
        
        for (var i = 0; i = elem.length; i++) {
            alert(elem[i].className);
        }
    }
</script>

Run it... and you screwed! On nearly every page you will be forced to shut down IE via Task Manager or you'll die clicking "OK".
