Both worked...after a fashion. However, one thing I cannot stand is the inflexibility of the toolbars. For instance, I DON'T want a favorites button anywhere on my screen. I WANT my home button beside the rest of the navigation buttons - as well as the Print button. I know I can download Quero and IE7Pro to change some of the interface, but it isn't enough. I want the flexibility so change what I want...like FF offers.Frankly, people who like this browser over FF scare the crap out of me. These are the same kind of people who watch Fox News and think Weapons of Mass Destruction were found in Iraq. I have tried IE8 on two PCs. Both worked…after a fashion.

Both times, it failed to open up. The screen flashes for a nanosecond and then disappears. At this point, I have yet to figure out why this is happening. Twice now, I have upgraded to IE8.

Yes it works with IE8. - I just thought I'd draw your attention to it in case you missed it. :-) Are you aware that there’s an IE version of Foxmarks plugin available?

('Been using Firefox.)I still give IE8 the thumbs-up; although as you say the add-ons/plugins that are available with Firefox will prevent me from using IE much.

I love it. I switched back from Firefox to IE8. I do not use a lot of plug-ins for Firefox. I use foxmarks (soon to be xmarks), Adblock, foxcast (weather), and occasionally foxy tunes. For the standard user IE 8 is a great upgrade. I also love IE8's accelerators. I really don't have a solid reason to stay with Firefox at the moment, but I still use IE, FF, Chrome, and Safari for different things. Since I am a SharePoint Admin/Developer I find I am using MS products more and more. Like I have said in previous posts, MS is making leaps and bounds to recover from its Vista PR failure. In my attempt to consolidate MS is making it easier. Maybe I am just becoming a fanboy? I upgraded to IE8. I love it. I switched back from Firefox to IE8. I do not use a lot of plug-ins for Firefox.
