I use IE8 as my standard browser, mainly because it is now possible to test your pages as if they were being viewed by IE6/IE7 or IE8 
I have found a few quirky pages, some because the pages are coded wrong and a couple which were obvious bugs in IE8, you can set IE8 to run as IE7 by default which should not give you any problems< |

| open the dev toolbar and set it to Quirks mode, that emulates IE5/6 or Strict mode for IE7< |

| I played with IE8, almost immediately had to emulate IE7 because of errors; got disgusted and went back to 7.< |

| Actually, 8 in emulation mode is less crash prone than 7. 7 was crashing about 5 times a day (had to kill it from Task Manager), so I'm using 8 and don't see me going back .< |

| I agree with Rui emulation mode for it seems to be less buggy than 7. I am liking 8 so far but I do run it in emulation mode for the most part.< |

I've not had the problems with IE7 (which I use mostly at work), but I probably ought to install it at home (the desktop standard at work is IE6  ) so I can start testing my websites. One of my concerns was testing in older browsers as well. Since IE7 doesn't really have a good "stand alone" install, I was curious as to how people were going to test against older versions.
I'm also needing to start testing against Fx3... it never ends.  < |

I just discovered a fairly serious flaw in IE8, which pretty much renders WebApplication unusable in iE8
When opening a new Window in IE8 from an existing Window, the users session is lost!< |
