Default So far, so good

So far, so good: My "normal" browser is Firefox 3.0.7 but I have installed the released version of IE8 to replace IE7 on WinXP Home SP3. (I've been using IE8 Beta 7000 on Windows 7 Beta 7000 for a while.)

So far, I've had no problems with IE8. Although one of my web-sites which is hosted on MS Office Live seems to switch IE8 automatically into its "IE7 Standards Mode."

I use few plugins, but IE8 is happily using my Flash 10 and Silverlight 2 plugins. During installation, IE8 also offered to import "Favourites" from IE7 and from my other browsers.

Amongst other things, IE8 provides a set of handy "Developer's Tools."
