"Bad Browser"
Version: Windows Internet Explorer 8 for MSN (Windows Vista 32-bit) 8.0.6001.18702IC
Pros
Good for downloading Webkit or Firefox
Cons
This part goes without saying :)
-
"Hotmail and I can's send or forward."
Version: Windows Internet Explorer 8 for MSN (Windows Vista 32-bit) 8.0.6001.18702IC
Pros
I am not sure yet!
Cons
Can't figure our how to set it properly.
Summary
Well, I have it now . I just need to find out the right settings for the IE 8 for Vista.
-
"Typical Browser"
Version: Windows Internet Explorer 8 for MSN (Windows Vista 32-bit) 8.0.6001.18702IC
Pros
Slow and buggy, but decent for the average grandma.
Cons
It's only okay, not amazing
Summary
General browser. Not awesome, but not horrible.
-
"COMPLETE CHAOS"
Version: Windows Internet Explorer 8 for MSN (Windows Vista 32-bit) 8.0.6001.18702IC
Pros
I have nothing positive to say about this crap browser
Cons
Worst hassle I ever had with browser. They need to revamp it. It does stuff I did not ask for ALL ACROSS the board and cannot change settings, I HATE IT
Summary
It is interfering with anything google. I cannot even use google search correctly. Goes to completely off-topic pages and seems to have affected my registry too!
-
"crapware - the worst browser on the market"
Version: Windows Internet Explorer 8 for MSN (Windows Vista 32-bit) 8.0.6001.18702IC
Pros
Easily customizable
Cons
SlOOOOW. Continuous problems with updates. Poor excuse for Microsoft software, but a good match for Vista, which Microsoft should ALSO apologize for.

"Terrible I had to switch to Firefox"
Version: Windows Internet Explorer 8 for MSN (Windows Vista 32-bit) 8.0.6001.18702IC
Pros
Nothing really. Seems like there may be some good intentions but it froze up on me so much I had to give up.
Cons
Freezing. Hesitating. Slow to load
Summary
I simply can not believe that an organization that is so successful can get it so wrong. It looks like there may be some good ideas there but they have not delivered. After a frustrating day of freezes and hesitations I wish I had not upgraded from explorer 7. I have always used explorer and Firefox occasionally but this is so bad I'll be 100% Firefox from now on.
Take my advise and don't bother to download. You may waste your time like I did. I would have given it zero stars if it were possible. -
"How do I get rid of the bad stuff?"
Version: Windows Internet Explorer 8 for MSN (Windows Vista 32-bit) 8.0.6001.18702IC
Pros
I do like to be asked about what I whant to do. Read my E-mail etc. Suggestions of web-sites etc. The favorits bar is great! Easy-mail is fantastic!
Cons
I've got a slow modem allready and now it's sooo veeery weary very much more slower than ever ever ever before!!!! HELP ME!
Summary
I did trust MS to install IE8. Now I'm searching fore help to solve the problems it gave me.... The questions of what I whant to do should stay on MY OWN startpage in a small window!. Most of the time I just whant to do like I allways do, just open my mail. A grat solution would be if the "program" could read my misstakes or problems finding out soloutions for me in a simple way!
