IE8 is out

Postby Fulvio » Wed 29 Apr, 2009 9:00 pm

I downloaded and installed IE8. Very simple and straightforward set up.
Only one problem, may be a coincidence, but my Firewall failed after rebooting the computer. I had to uninstall it, and reinstall it to make it work. It never failed before.

After installing IE 8 on my Windows XP (under Parallels Desktop for Mac), I didn't experience any problems.

I only use the built-in firewall.

We installed IE8 on all three of our computers (one with Trend Micro security suite and two with McAfee Internet security suite). No problems on any of these machines.
