Thanks for the heads up, I just DLed it :)

So far I like it cuz it's new but I'm not that impressed - IE8 felt like a bigger step up from IE7/6

Also, it kind of slowed my mouse/PC down when I had too maby tabs open, nothing like that happened in IE8 - - - - The icon is HORRIBLE imo!!!

I don't know why I love IE so much roflrofl but I do <3

 

Also, I just noticed there's something wrong with the reply text editor - no mouse functionality (it works if you right-click where you want though)

really?

IE 7 and 8 both seem very similar to me. I sure hope you don't go back to using IE8, just give IE9 some time please.

and please don't mention IE6, the fact we still have to live with it is annoying enough.

I think if you want a quick and user friendly browser Chrome and Safari are probably the best choices. IE9 (at least the beta, I haven't DLed the full release yet) seems to be similar to those two... the only thing I have noticed is an odd bug with rounded corners on a border that is animated, and it seems to do something with fonts in general that to me make them a bit harder to read... but using a tool to rotate fonts 90 degrees they look really ugly in IE9 beta. Maybe those two things will have been fixed in the release i'm not sure.

I tend to use Firefox mostly, I generally have fewer problems with it than the others.... only thing is newer versions of FF seem to be getting worse than their predecesors rather than better, it seems to use quite a lot of memory and often takes a while to open (though is quick enough when running)

I also use Opera on occasion, mostly because it seems to conform to standards more than others... I can generally trust Opera to display things as they should be.
