I'm using it just fine! I had an issue with the Blackboard Suite at first (I am a college student) but that seems to have worked itself out I would guess due to an automatic update. If I run across an issue, I just switch to Mazilla Firefox. I can usually get whatever I need done with one or the other.

If you or anyone else could talk about specific issues which you could be having, you might find that it's a problem which those of us who are comfortable using IE8 might be able to help you solve.
