Marcus Posted February 10, 2010 ID:197519 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I have not tested them yet but I have seen some early reports that some of the fixes still left some holes open....Look on the bright Firefox; there's a couple less holes than this time yesterday. Or to put it another way your leaky bucket has smaller holes!------Out of interest how are you finding IE8? Noticed any problems or peculiarities with it?I'm still on IE7 and finding it perfectly all right for general web browsing/use.Can't give myself a reason to upgrade yet.

mountaintree16 Posted February 10, 2010 ID:197537 Share Posted February 10, 2010 You find the awesomest pictures, YoKenny1 I'll probably get my updates tomorrow.Edit: I upgraded to IE8 when it came out coz I thought I needed to for security. Turns out that's not true. Oh well. It's alright. I hardly use IE much anyway, so its alright. I've been using it more than I have in the last year lately though.

DarkSnakeKobra Posted February 10, 2010 ID:197544 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Me too - I still do not like IE 8 as much as 7 - Been there twice and keep going back to IE 7 - I personally don't mind IE 8. Although I use Seamonkey most of the time, I still have to use IE on occasions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firefox Posted February 10, 2010 ID:197558 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I upgraded to IE8 also, but to view this forum correctly and so the pages show right.... I have to use it in compatibility mode for this and a few other forums I visit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkSnakeKobra Posted February 10, 2010 ID:197600 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Actually I've been registered here since October, but just became active around late December early January.
