Hold Off On IE8 for Now
Friday, April 10th, 2009Experts are saying that it would be a good idea to wait to upgrade to Internet Explorer 8, at least for a month, until performance and security issues are dealt with by Microsoft. Better yet, consider using Firefox instead, which is both faster and more secure than IE.
Steve Gibson also has some reservations about IE8 (look for episode #189 of Security Now!), one of which is its inability to fully block third-party cookies.
