Ie 11
 

I'm currently running a lower version with windows 7, upgrading to IE 11 is in the near future, what can I expect in the way of problems, I understand Microsoft is just about forcing everyone to upgrade since they will not support the lower versions much longer.
Is this a no problem solution ?
Something that I can do without having to call in a tech?

I would strongly suggest that you install either Chrome browser or Firefox browser before you up-grade. That way is something goes wrong you will at least be able to get on the internet to fix it. If you don't have another browser installed you are screwed.

"Microsoft's support lifecycle for every Windows version is a generous 10 years from the date it was launched..... anyone running Windows 7 can do so with confidence until January 14, 2020.
Windows 8 users are about to be cut off from security updates. When the first Patch Tuesday of 2016 rolls around on January 12, it will represent the last batch of updates for Windows 8."
