1176991 2011-02-12 07:29:00 Think I found Opera's prob. Its this annoying mouse gestures option. Thats what stuffed things up. I've killed it. Hopefully, things dont go backwards / forwards, or close on me now Speedy Gonzales (78)
1176992 2011-02-12 10:45:00 After using IE9 today, I can say the most annoying things are:

1) Tabs with transparent background on Aero - YOU CAN'T ****ING READ THEM!

2) The stupid over-sensitive download manager which wastes 5 minutes checking to see if anyone else has downloaded a file before, telling you they haven't, and then advising you not to run it.

3) The 'submit feedback' doesn't like me so I can't tell Microsoft how stupid these 2 things are.

4) Can't re-order the toolbars as I'd like (can't say this was unexpected)

It's not compulsory to use IE9 you know.

1176994 2011-02-12 11:40:00 I'm keeping away from IE.

I'm a happy Firefox user, but damn, it takes longer to start up than it did when i first started using it 4 years ago.

1176995 2011-02-13 02:42:00 Normally use FF, although I think Chrome is better. So last night I installed ie9, After it made me install SP2 of course. So far I'm quite impressed, seems faster, sleeker and better looking than ie8. This is my first thoughts :) radium (8645)
