Re: Microsoft IE8
Thanks, I know you're trying to be helpful but I was looking more for opinions from any of my CF friends who might have used it. I have been known to google (friggin constantly) but you're link did amuse me so thanks for that also.
I'm not one for downloading and trying early versions of Software (especially MS) but I am interested in the opinions of people who have tested the water. There are quite a few CF members who are both knowledgable and articulate and I'm sure if they're in the position to, they'll stick in their tuppence worth.

Does it offer a facility to block ads?

Re: Microsoft IE8
I got rid of it far to many sites incompatible and has to be run in compat mode. Just a pain in the backside.

Re: Microsoft IE8
I'm running it at the moment and it seems a lot better than IE8 B2.
They seem to have done work over the compatability as well, so I haven't come across a site that breaks (yet)
