    You've opened a can of worms now. Wait until MadMark gets on about it agreeing with you lol. I downloaded Firefox 3.5 yesterday but still using IE7 alongside it for now.

    Have got ie 7 but don't use it anymore, I now use firefox after reading peoples comments about it on here, haven't had a problem with it so far unlike ie7 going to upgrade to 3.5 when I get round to it.

    IE 8 is the biggest piule of ***** ever !!!

    Worst thing ever brought out. It was like using a 25 year old Spectrum, but not as fast. (N) (N) (N) (N) /poo /poo /poo /poo /poo /poo
