Title: Internet Explore 8 and Google Chrome
Post by: cpu on November 06, 2009, 12:48:38 PM

Hi people

Some computer info for you all.  IE8, the latest version of Internet Explorer.  is causing problems.  Not just here but on all sites.  It hangs, gets upset with marquee banners, like in my signature shown below, and all sorts of other problems.  The traffic on the web about it's problems is very high.  There are lots of people complaining about it.

We have been testing a few of the other search engines and we recommend that people down load and install Google Chrome.  It's fast and so far, very reliable.

Peter P and our other web developers have switched over to it and for them to change their web browsers to another type means that IE8 is really bad.

If you're on IE7, like I am, It's fine but IE8.......  forget it.

So if you are on IE8 and experiencing hanging and DEP errors, switch to Google Chrome

As I've said before, it's a good thing Microsoft doesn't make cars or refigerators.
