Hi All,

anyone have any experience in trying this out? I refuse to use non-standards complient IE for browsing, but need to check my hacks for IE users on client sites.

A quick google search comes back with nearly every result saying users have had major issues with it especially uninstalling, worse than ie7 for standards compliance etc…

Anyone tried it? I’m a bit scared to install the beta.
