First Impressions of Internet Explorer 8, Beta 2
Still sucks. And now a lot of my add-ons don’t work. There’s an annoying little message that pops-up at the top of the browser screen that says, “Internet Explorer is currently running with add-ons disabled. Click here to manage, disable, or remove your add-ons.” Well that’s great, but how am I supposed to know what add-ons are or are not compatible with Internet Explorer 8, Beta 2, if it doesn’t tell me?!?! Firefox at least has that easy to use feature where you can search for and install add-on updates with just a simple click of a button. Firefox is great, Internet Explorer sucks.
Also, what happened to the “Emulate IE7″ button? Do the people at Microsoft not understand that there are a lot of people out there who need to test RIAs and Web sites on multiple browser types? I completely regret installing the Beta 2 version of IE8, because it’s worse than the first Beta version! Screw this, I’m going back to IE7 until they fix those problems.
