What sites were you going to that said those messages? IE8 is working great for me and haven't run into compatibility problems yet (although some websites render incorrectly)

Yeah? I'm saying that IE8 doesn't run in IE7 compatibility mode (thus running a different layout engine). Not that websites are incompatible with IE8 because of web site design, because there are some.

Anyways I'm just testing it and it seems really stable now, which wasn't the case when Beta 2 and RC1 came out.
 
Well as far as i know its my aol mail, hulu, tagged "like a myspace" Ive only had it for a few hours. Most of the time it comes up with a box that has the "Internet Exploerer has stopped working" Can i redownload it? I dought i can go back to IE7? I just have a really unstable IE and its no fun!
