IE 9, your not Fine;

(1/2) > >>

Rick:
When I reset the developer options to IE8; the webpage loads;

"please do not prevent me from making money ok"! (FIX IT)

but how many customers would know that?

Code with IE9 = Code with IE8 (needs an auto reset when loading pages) ...

Shane:
Not sure what you mean.

But XP stopped at IE 8, and IE 7 came preinstalled on vista and stopped at IE 9 and I think Windows 7 had IE 9 by default?

But they have IE 11 out for Windows 7 and 8.

IE before version 10 where horrible. 10 was a little better and 11 they finally started following standards better.

And why on earth they cant have the newest IE on the older Windows I dont know, bad programming?

So it does matter what version of IE you have and what version of Windows. IE is a mess lol

Washbush:
A question for me:  Is there a way to use any version later than IE9 with Vista SP2?

Shane:
Not that I know of, but at the same time I never tried. The earlier versions of IE are horrible and have so many security holes in them that you can get infected very easily.

Honestly, use firefox or chrome :-)

Washbush:
Right.  I have become quite a solid Firefox User.  There are a couple situations where Chrome seems to work better, and running streaming video is occasionally one of them ... at least here at my house.  For me, finding and using the Firefox add-ons is what pushes it over the top for me.  Lots of choice, so far zero problems that can't be handled with a click to turn them off, and they seem to be made in a more mature, logical way.  Back to Chrome, the thing that bothers me the most about Chrome, and all of Google for that matter, is that they are encouraging me to turn over every single bit of information I have about me.  That even includes where I am, where I want to go and how I am going to get there ... much less all of my personal (and psychological) data.  That is just too much for me.  I still will back away from just about anything that I think looks like it could compromise my privacy.
