I see my windows computer just updated to the new internet explorer 9, anyone else using it at the moment. It looks cool!
 
Have tried IE9, it is ok but still prefer Firefox, mainly for the add-ons ;-)
 
Use it at work now after an update, still prefer FF though considering that I run Linux at home.

At least their tab management has improved, but haven't noticed much else.

I only found out today that Youtube video's have adds in them..... Because someone had an issue

in that line Firefox is still the best, now I know why I dont touch other browsers
 
Some issues with IE9 in these threads ...

Sure you'll find more (issues) on Microsoft's forums. I don't find it as user friendly as prior versions, though have become used to working around irritating things.
Am using Chrome more than before (as a result of IE9 not being a favourite), but there are some things Chrome doesn't handle well, like copying / pasting usernames & passwords. Most need to be typed, unless (I find) Chrome has allowed me to save these beforehand.

IE9 doesn't work with XP. This is most likely due to the fact the MS has stopped most support for XP. No problems though as Win 7 rocks.
 
i should imagine if most people have ie on this forum, it'll be ie9.
it's given gary some issues with nedbank business banking.
otherwise it seems far better than ie8.
 
Opera & Chrome FTW!!!!!! Nothing better than a little bit of this and a little bit of that
 
IE9 - its like covering a gunshot wound with a plaster

FF4 FTW.
 
IE9 is a headache covered in poor CSS icing-sugar dipped in terrible C, C++ nut sprinkles. FF for FS
 
I use IE for my development work (Client's corporate network only run IE) and one thing i do like about IE9 is its load speed is much better.
I run chrome and FF for my personal browsing.
 
IE9 is still a vast improvement over IE8. I enjoy some of the new features but still an avid Firefox fan.
