I see where IE8 has been released and I was thinking about downloading it.
Has anyone else used it and if so what is your opinion?
Thanks

I too would like to know if anyone has downloaded
IE 8 and if so, any concerns or pros and cons it might have. I'm thinking seriously of doing this download this weekend unless I hear of any problems cropping up.
Running good for me.
The best one so far.
Nothing to it, runs easy and smooth.
I'm running Windows VISTA Home Premium, 32bit, 2GB RAM and 163GB free.
I presently use IE 7 and haven't had any problems with it not editing
my photos in Photobucket.
I have downloaded IE 8 two different times but each time it will not let
me edit my photos in Photobucket. Page starts to open but stops at top.
Could someone help me with this problem in IE 8 as I use Photobucket
many times. Thanks, Bob
You should do that if you haven't. You should especially pay attention to removing all toolbars before installing IE-8 -- if necessary, revert to IE-7, then remove tool bars, then reinstall IE-8. Then manage your add-ons and plug-ins as suggested in the thread.
Then make sure Java, Flash, etc. are up to date.
Then try again.
I think you'll find IE-8 works. Be sure to remove and reinstall because you'll be certain to have the latest and greatest when you do that.
If that doesn't work, I'll hope a photobucket expert comes along and helps you.

downloaded and installed with no problems running smoothley
with no problems yet
Don't download it. I have had nothing but problems with constant crashes. Will not let you open certain sites. I just uninstalled it and back to normal and everything opens as it should with no crashes. It is not ready for use - don't waste your time.
HOW DO YOU UNISTALL IT. BECAUSE I HATE IT!!!!
I got rid of IE8. If I remember correctly I went to:
control panel -> programs and features -> installed updates
Then click-on the IE8 entry. This will give you the uninstall option. If you choose this it will back up windows to IE7 and you should be back where you want to be. Good Luck!
Hi - I saw your reply on Internet Explorer 8 - if I uninstall IE8 does it automatically revert to IE7?
I'm not very technically minded - but I've had nothing but problems since I updated to IE8 Aand would like to go back to IE7
Hey, bowls999. The answer to your question is: yes. Before I uninstalled IE8 I contacted Microsoft and they told me how to do it. They also told me the uninstall would automatically revert to IE7 and it happened that way when I did it. You should be OK if you do like I did.
Thanks alot - I've uninstalled IE8 and now I have IE7 and its working wonderfully. What a terrible time its given me!!!
Regards
bowls999: I hear that!
I DOWNLOADED IT AND I DON'T LIKE IT. I WISH I COULD GO BACK TO 7. IT WORKED GREAT.AND 8 WILL NOT WORK HALF THE TIME. EVERY OTHER PAGE I GO TO. IT SAYS IT HAS TO CLOSE. I HATE IT.
Internet Explorer has stopped working---my all too frequent response to using IE8 for the past 2 weeks. So I changed my default to Chrome.
