Title: IE8 scripts problems
Post by: Smooth Groove on October 23, 2009, 12:51:27 AM: I love IE8 but certain sites take forever to load in IE8 while they load instantaneously in Firefox. Usually, I get some error message about a script running slowly.

Is there any way to fix this as I'd rather just use IE8 100% of the time?

tools --> compatibility view settings --> add.

or try running in no add-ons mode:

start --> all programs --> accessories --> system tools --> IE8.

If you just want speed Google Chrome whips Firefox and is just a little faster than IE8, which offers far better usability and is the official evilbore browser of now and forever.

Also, the sites that are running bad-can you tell if the scripts are ad-related? That's where I usually get hangups, outside of a few intranet apps that were obviously coded by college co-ops hopped up on goofball.
