The RC version is worse than the beta. 99% of the sites now take like 10 seconds to load properly (in fact, Cheat Happens is the only site I visit freqeuently that still loads normally). What is Microsoft doing?

i noticed things going downhill with IE8...pages took a huge amount of time to load...sometimes wouldn't load properly...even CH. i guess with IE9...things have gotten worse.

No. IE9 beta was a huge step in the right direction (and even worthy of being a competitor along side firefox and chrome). It was fast, sleek, and actually worked. Now they took like 5 huge steps backwards with the RC release.

"you maniacs, you blew it up" isn't that how the old quote from planet of the apes, i don't know, i haven't seen those flicks in mearly 20 years, i'm still usihg ie8 cause i'm using xp, thinking of stepping up to window 7 for my next and a version of office that isn't a decade old.

I uninstalled the RC version and any addon related to IE and reinstalled all of them. Now it's working fine. No idea what happened there.

I hope its just the PC version. I can't wait for IE9 Mobile for my WP7 the current version they gave us sucks.

This Link is what's wrong with Internet Explorer.

this is exactly the same error screen i got repeatedly with IE8 which is y i switched to Google Chrome and too scared to use IE9. there were times when the screen would freeze for a few seconds till it loaded properly. Neo pls let us know the positive attributes of IE9..if any.
