No-one in their right mind whom knows anything about security and Winblows would ever use IE without extreme care and usually not for anything else but to download a different browser; too many choose the spy version in Chrome, not enough choose the privacy browser in Firefox -- of course there are other options, but IE is NOT one that should be used unless it is absolutely necessary and then it is painful for those that know. Every single month (almost if not), M$ has security updates for serious critical vulnerabilities; they are usually vuln' that would work on every current supported version of Windblows and versions that are no longer supported (the bad guys work out what has changed and the older versions are easily exploited). IE, like many programs / systems, has it's own lifecycle for support purposes -- most versions are history. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/lifecycle#gp/Microsoft-Internet-Explorer Oh and Edge was based on a point in time fork of the IE engine; so even though it has improvements, it has also seen security updates since release to patch critical vulnerabilities. The safest way to use IE is not to do so at all; have you download of Firefox available as an already downloaded installer for Winblows.... There are other reasons why SAN isn't applicable with older versions of Winblows too. XP doesn't support it from what I understand, but you aren't using XP are you? Surely. Cheers A.
