Opera rocks full stop. I've tried IE8, doesn't do it for me. All the nifty gadgets that only work with certain websites and in certain circumstances, its pretty much only a speed upgrade with extra trimmings which I personally don't need.

Internet Explorer 9? That's doubtful, if IE 8 really isn't even out. I say the first.

I really wish they'd stop shipping IE with Windows. Can't they give you a quick option when you install windows (or when you first set it up - for the people that get their computers/laptops pre-built):

"Which internet browser would you like to install?

Microsoft IE8
Firefox 3
Opera
Google Chrome
etc
etc
etc"

I installed Firefox on my friend's laptop when I cleaned it up for him. He was like "where's Internet Explorer?"
"I installed Firefox instead. It's better."
"Oh ... what does it do."
"It does the same as IE but it's a bit faster and more secure. And it blocks ads too."
"How does it work?"
"Just the same as IE."
"Oh, ok."

A week later I saw he was back using IE. He didn't like that it was different. :banghead:

If people were given a choice from the beginning they might realise there are other options out there.

well when i tried the beta back in august, the first thing i noticed was it had displaced all the plugins like java and adobe.

just checked they are there and working- checked for any new stuff in windows options

and there is a few but nothing earth shattering here. the webslices are a bit boring,

we need one for tpu i think, but thats my opinion:rockout:

there must be something wrong though, they havent issued a bugfix for it yet :laugh:

should they also ask you "Would you like to install Microsoft Windows or something else like linux" before installing Windows??
Seriously, it's THEIR product.

and in case you don't know, you can't really separate IE from Windows, lots of interfaces and functions rely on it.

You're silly if you think MS shouldn't pack a browser into their OS. And if they gave you a choice they would most likely have to get a license of some kind to use them.

I only use IE when only specific sites require IE (like Windows Update, or specific sites) , and I use FireFox for 4 Years now and never had a problem, but with IE, its slow, crashes alot, takes alot of CPU usage and just slows down the computer...

But its great that people actually says now its faster, less buggy, just smoother, but you cant pull me away from Firefox

So this is Microsoft wanting to find a way to make legit and bootleg copies of windows go through their genuine advantage check = license and registration please.

More secure that's good but come on with their greedy licensing tactics.

I know they want to make money but when you have 15 million different kind of keys that only work with this or these discs, it seems like scam is written all over it.

my 2c but really it only worth 1.2 now in us

How about not flame baiting? This news is about IE8 RC1, it has no link to any other product whatsoever. If you want to be FF/Google fanboy do it elsewhere.

Agreed.

Been using IE here for ages now, and have been on IE8b since it's first release. I've never had any issues in regards to security (which is the biggest arguement supporters of FF, Opera, Safari and all other anti-IE users make), and 95% of the time, I'm online WITHOUT active AV on, or a firewall.

Amount of malware I vacuum off the nether regions of the internet? 0%

Why? I keep my friggin software updated, plain and simple.

Now . . . excuse me while I go download the IE8 RC1 so I can start sending in further feedback :toast:

How about putting up with a little harmless silliness? None of those comments were even being disparaging to IE -- I'm sure you've seen a lot worse.
