That being said, I have had 2 different computer guys that I trust (like directors of IT at 100+ employee companies) tell me that if your network security is adequate, IE is actually the best performing browser in nearly every measurable metric. And I have seen studies recently that say the most recent version of IE is more secure than Firefox "out of the box."

I should probably give up on FF and go to Chrome... FF is becoming more and more bloated, the "OMG you're using an outdated version of Flash so we're going to keep disabling it on every website you visit until you update" feature is really annoying, and the new Google maps doesn't play well with FF at all.
I've heard the same things about IE as far as the metrics, but my experience has been quite different.
