Seems like i just updated too Explorer 7.0 now it's updating time again too 8.0.
How does it work with the games and the auto's will the auto's need too be redone again?
thanks everyone for your feedback!
I tried IE8 in beta and it was brutal
You couldn't pay me to switch
I am running 8 on my desktop and no problems with autos so far
I know 8 recently came out but I tend to hang back for a bit of time before updating. My 7 is working great and I hesitate to mess with success. I'll change when I have to or 8 is a resounding success!
I used to have to have the newest toys or I wasn't happy and felt the world rush past me. Having a beta was like a chocolate dipped new toy. Vista broke me of that. I am now perfectly happy allowing others to be the guinea pigs for Microsoft.

Well, duh! But still, wussup wif dat?
Because the 8.0 shown above is because we are in this thread. If you were in the thread, "Squid is the most gorgeous woman on earth", it would say that. When we looked up, we saw the 8.0 and jumped to the conclusion that 8.0 had been downloaded. We be wrong.

IE 8 beta was horrible and messed up auto's (amongst other things) left right and center. I beleive it's now out of beta or its beta 2. Anyway if you have automatic updates on it is a standard update. Unless you actually view your updates before allowing Microsoft to install them then it will have come onto your computer and being installed with the rest of the updates that come in.
Actually the latest version isn't too bad, its more secure and when I run a spyware checker I am not getting lots of alerts anymore.
The only update lately that is causing me big big problems is the new java update. It hates double browsing tease.gif Had to uninstall and go back to an earlier version.

LOL, maybe I was too hasty in removing that cape! giggle2.gif
girls22.gif I downloaded and installed Explorer 8 (free version) as someone suggested. I think it's a bit faster, has more options and is more user friendly --
BUT I'm finding that some of the pic's on this site are now only boxes with a small red x in top corner. I followed the directions for the recommended settings from Homer that's here on this site but it didn't fix it so I guess that's not the problem. Any suggestions as to how I can fix this, plez ... anybody? Poo, always some other ugly thing to deal with.

OMG, u r all too funny giggle2.gif I still have IE6 & wont install even 7. i had it & couldnt figure it out, so as long as my games play ( Why update) thats my personnal preference though.
Have a nice day. r2.gif
I upgraded to 8 because the version I had was constantly freezing. I worked on that *&)@( thing for months and could not fix the problem. Once I upgraded to 8 problem gone. Autos run fine and no more freezing. I have not upgraded to 8 on laptop cause it works fine. So as with everything Microsoft some will like it and have no problems others will hate it and nearly destroy the computer. The only thing I turned off on 8 was the page checker. It is a pain in the ass.gif
What's a page checker? dancing16.gif
