I use IE, or did use IE as my browser of choice. I&#8217;ve always found it to be reliable and fast. Faster indeed than Firefox and more familiar than any other browser cos I&#8217;ve been using longer.<\/p>\n<p>I use other browsers, Chrome and Firefox in other circumstances, especially to check for compatibility when we change the sites. Though never Safari as every time I&#8217;ve tried to use it the daft thing just falls over and is horribly slow and clunky.<\/p>\n<p>So to ensure that everything worked with Version 8 of Internet Explorer I thought I&#8217;d give it a go. Of course, if it didn&#8217;t work I could simply uninstall it, right?<\/p>\n<p>Wrong.<\/p>\n<p>The installation seemed to go OK, but it errors, is temperamental about following links and keeps telling me I&#8217;m not connected to the Internet, then immediately says &#8220;No problems with the Internet connection.&#8221; And when I tried to uninstall the software \u2026 I can&#8217;t even see it in &#8220;Installed Programs&#8221; let alone remove it.<\/p>\n<p>OK, I thought, reinstall IE7. No. Apparently IE7 is not compatible with my version of the OS.<\/p>\n<p>Now I can&#8217;t check out the new features of IE8 because it&#8217;s broken so I&#8217;m using Chrome \u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Internet Explorer 8 is Evil.
