Simcfc73 Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 A nice little pop up came up telling me I had an important update to install and lo and behold its the new version of IE8. A quick reboot later and here I am using it. Managed to crash it within 5 minutes and all the windows closed down (thought they were all independant now???) but after that it seems lovely and pretty fast. Still prefer IE to FF.. I know I should be burned at the stake but I do

EduTech Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 I aint got in on windows update, but i downloaded it the other day? i havent had any popups for updates the the RC i already have...
Simcfc73 Posted February 9, 2009 Author Posted February 9, 2009 I was running the beta version so it might have only been an update for that. I did try and remove it but the bugger is there for good.
Theblacksheep Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 I did try and remove it but the bugger is there for good. Firefox: 1 ie 8: 0
zag Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 Its pretty good but I can't live without the firefox add remover and flashblock.
Michael Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 If you're running an existing version of IE8 you'll receive the new updated version and/or patches to IE8 through Automatic Updates. I still haven't looked at it yet, simply haven't had the time!
