I’ve been reading all the dreaded reports that the new Internet Explorer 8 seems to be causing havoc on some people’s machines. But I have to say, I’ve been using it for most of the day and haven’t had an issue yet.
I don’t really see much difference, although the improvements are well documented on Microsoft’s website – http://www.microsoft.com/windows/internet-explorer/features/overview.aspx?tabid=1&catid=1
Thankfully, they’ve cleared up the issues from the beta version that rendered a lot of sites useless – I wrote about this before, you can read the article here – Internet Explorer 8 Beta

i must say i really like ie8 my one gripe however is i never use any accelerators so i deactivated the ones that are installed, my problem is that there doesn’t seem to be a way to get rid of the button that comes up when you select text, i find myself clicking it when trying to drag text to a textfield.

Internet Explorer 8 seems to be better than any previous version of IE. IE8 is very stable and rarely crashes or cause blue screens.
