Internet Explorer 8
 

so ie8 is out of beta and has been officially released today

anyone else think it sucks?

some of my pages were a little wacked out too :(

I dont use IE since 1993..mainly coz IE sucks versus FF

IE makes up it's own fucking rendering rules and IE 8 is one of the worst, in that respect.

IE8 disabled automatic upload filled.. so if your using chameleon submitter... not a good upgrade.

I dont like I.E yet by accident I'm using it right now :x

im firefox for life

Switched to FF long ago, don't think I will ever go back.

In no rush to get ie8, but don't most if not all of you use all the browsers to check compatibility?

I've been using it since first beta release. Fucking awesome browser. But as all previous versions, it's for the elite. Losers should continue using wannabe browsers, like FF (fucking faggot).

It seems to be just like IE7, maybe I am missing some sort of enhancements that it has.

I thought M$ was going to kill IE and create a new browser??

IE does blow but the surfers seem to use it a lot more than the rest of them

Never used it. And never will. Started in 97 with netscape, then opera, now since a couple of years FF. I don't know why people use IE.

IE sucks !!!!!!!!11

I Agree! :1orglaugh

Ahhh fuck.
More things to worry about.

I still use 6 when I use IE. I don't like upgrading MS products unless I have a gun to my head.

Same here.... IE is still a major vector for drive by installations and spyware. Firefox with NoScript and ABP is practically bulletproof - not a single virus, popup, or issue I can remember in the last 3-4 years I've been using it.

I can even show others who use this computer to click on the NoScript symbol when they go to a webpage they know and trust and it's not working right. Super simple.

Combined with G-Mail... it truly is worry free browsing, and I can save my cash instead of spending it on useless anti-virus programs which don't really work once your infected anyways. :2 cents:

sucks.... mozila rules...

i won't use it

not really safe to use IE 6 anymore IMO

Funny I can say the same about IE. None of those issues. Of course I'm not retarded. The facts are anyone that depends on a browser as their main security is kind of fucked up in the head anyway.

not gonna use it tried it but Im sticking with FF

really, let me go grab it, i have the beta since a while and i really like it, when sites dont display correctly, just use the compatibility view and it'll work fine.

I wonder the same about FF. Honestly I have IE, FF, Opera, Safari, Chrome all on my computer and FF would be the absolute last one I would use. I mean if you're an IE hater or MS hater fine whatever then I can think of 3 other browsers I'd use over that.

People want to bitch about how IE doesn't follow standards yet FF scores lower than Safari, Opera and Chrome on the acid 3 test. So if "standards" is your um.... standard on choosing a browser why use FF?

Opera 9 85/100
Chrome 79/100
Safari 3 75/100
FF 3.07 69/100

Betas

Safari 4 100/100
Opera 10 100/100
Chrome 2.0 100/100
FF 3.1 93/100

don't use is for about 2 years... happy with ff :) some time ago started to use chrome also.

I switched to Mac a couple of weeks ago. So no more IE 6, 7 or 8 for me!

i installed ie8, and having two issues with it

1. norton phishing gets disabled everytime ie8 loads
2. when open in new tab it just says connecting..

I just finished downloading it. I am a FF fan, but I need IE for testing. Looks like its going to be a fun road ahead, lol.
