Should have stayed with Win7
I upgraded from Win7 to Win10, and managed to KEEP IE11, so I use IE11 for this site as well as many others. I do not like Edge. Also, you are correct there appears to be a significant amount of spyware (or something similar) on this site. My antivirus software is constantly informing me of suspicious activity. I think the ads that pop up in the main screen are the culprits.

I would see if you can download or otherwise reinstall IE11, and use it.
One item, I have not figured out how to setup IE11 as my default browser, the E button is for Edge, and I have not found a way to change it.
Hope this helps.
