Scott. Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Ha, I have just downloaded IE 8 to see what is like and I can tell you it is the most lulzy awful piece of software I have actually ever seen. There are fucking error reports everywhere! This well and truly sucks, STAY AWAY FROM THIS. End. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott. Posted August 28, 2008 Author Share Posted August 28, 2008 IE 8 Homepage Okay, basically, the design is pretty boring, basically the same as IE 7. Also, you cannot use the Google toolbar as it will just throw up error messages at you every 2 seconds, which aint good. Also when you post here it is slow as fuck.

GTA Don Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 lol I downloaded it a few months ago (beta 1) and Hotmail was just being a bitch, pages not loading properly, content in the wrong place etc. So yeah, I went back to IE7 which is also being a bitch by not starting up.

Angry Gorilla Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Ah I see. I think I'll try it for the lulz, thanks for sharing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charger Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 It is a beta, so you can expect problems. I'll download it once I hear its okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandora Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 I got beta 2 a few days ago. It looks like MS is heading the right direction and I sure do like it. Just a few problems with plug-ins (which isn't anything else but normal and to be expected). Didn't have any errors. Just don't think it has to notify me every single time I start it about my plug-ins not working and that it can't find any updates for it. Fuck you, I know that by now. For now I'll stick to IE7 (over FF3, which I'm running now too BTW. Posting on IE7 though). And yeah, that means I uninstalled IE8. Just wanted to try out the beta.

chris82 Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Hurr beta, etc...you can't expect Google's code to magically accept Microsoft's the second a beta is released. Not that anyone should be using IE ever anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huckleberry Pie Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 IE sometimes refuses to load pages quickly, and you have to wait eons before it loads. If you still like IE, but is frustrated about its performance, go get Firefox 3, and install a Vista-Aero skin instead... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrLlamaLlama Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 IE 7 was a peice, too. Have to go through favourites to find history, then vice versa, you have to tell it you weant to see File | View, etc. And it's too bothered aout being visually pleasing and compact that it just pisses you off. Mum just got a lappy with vista, second she (well, she, meaning I) got the internet working on it, FF3 got installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
