870645 2010-03-29 09:07:00 It better do, because I ain't switching from IE7 until they get something better.

IE8 sucks.

Yeah - that'll happen! Maybe if they buy Opera??? But that will just ruin a perfectly good browser....

870646 2010-03-29 09:35:00 Yeah, you're probably right.

Once you get used to IE7 it's awesome, but some of the changes they made in IE8 were pointless and stupid.

I expect in IE9 the user interface will get worse, so I think once that comes out it may be time to switch over to Firefox completely

At least with Firefox if you don't like something you can customize it, unlike IE which gets less customizable in each version

And then what? An add on breaks your browsing experience maybe?

Go write your own O/S and all other software that suits you and the world will come to you.

870648 2010-03-29 11:25:00 So you'd rather something that does nothing just in case it doesn't work if it did?

I don't recall having anything break in Firefox, then again I don't use many extensions (don't need to)

Firefox and IE7 are both good as is, however both need a bit of tweaking.

The problem with IE8 and no doubt IE9 is they need more tweaking, but said tweaking can not be done.

870650 2010-03-29 18:35:00 At the moment IE9 doesn't even have an address bar. :stare:

(Hope they're integrating Firefox's! :D)

870652 2010-03-29 20:58:00 I now wonder if I made a wise choice in using MSE as my antivirus software. I have had a look at IE9 and as noted there is no address bar and nor is it actually usable in the real world.

Bear in mind that IE9 at this time is not even at Alpha or Beta stage far less at RC stage.
