I now run Mozilla firefox and love it, however the reason for switching is because with IE8 the following problems would occur.
When loading a page my pointer(mouse) wouldnt have any effect on the page. Sometimes I could click at the very top header of the page and then would be allowed to click, scroll, etc on the current page but it was/is a pain in the ***. Not to mention that IE seems to be so much slower than firefox. I removed java from IE and it seemed to speed things up a bit for a short while before again the problem would show up.
I dont know but I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this sort of functionality lag like I am?

One potential fix is through managing your add-ons. In IE, go to ‘tools’ and ‘manage add-ons’. Disabling any unnecessary add-ons may help your Internet run faster. Try disabling add-ons with more than a .2 sec load time. (i.e. tool bars)
If you’re still not having any luck, I recommend you reinstall IE8 on your system.

I hope this helps!

Cheers,
