Hi Barbra I too am happy with IE7 and with all the bugs in IE8 I won't be upgrading soon either. Interestingly though there is a compatibility button in IE8 which allows you to use it in IE7 mode because the majority of web sites don't work properly with IE8. That just about says it all really!

"We will soon be phasing out support for IE 7". As someone who is happy with IE 7 and has no intention to upgrade until absolutely necessary, is it likely that many sites will stop supporting IE 7 in the near future making upgrade to IE 8 essential?
