    It has so many security Loop wholes, recently i was reading an article about "IE 7-8 users getting hacked.
    No idea about it, but i use to validate my coded design fro clients, or else i always prefer Opera and firefox.

    Biggest problem with IE is performance. It drags your compy down big time compared to Firefox. Chrome is nice but has serious problems with a good number of sites (crashing ect.). It shows good promise though and I would not be suprised if it's #1 in a couple of years.

    IE8 is NOT good and will continue to force web developers to hack it to emulate the other more modern browsers.

    Not good at all! I have just loaded it for testing purposes. Main problem I have noticed is Adsense ads are not loading correctly.

    while we here use other browsers than ie8 ( i heart mozilla), you cannot ignore that they have almost 70% market share. you need to check it out. Especially now that ie8 rc1 is released and they are asking fro feedback- now is the time to be heard :)

    4 years ago they had 95% share.
    They've heard us loud and clear. Their market share has dropped almost every month for 4 years running. That's the only reason we still aren't using IE6. IE8 will continue to be the worst of the major browsers in web standards support, holding back developers from using many current, modern web techniques available on all other browsers.

    Firefox > IE* Full stop

    I really wish Microsoft would just leave the browser market and focus on windows(Leave the browsers to the professionals (ie. Firefox) :p).

    I agree firefox just took over the browser business especially since they are privately owned that's very amazing. chrome is okay but it doesn't give me the same security and comfort as firefox does. the rest of the browsers just don't really appeal to me, but yeah IE 8 sucks bad, but they'll release some patches soon
