Flor, That's interesting! I recently upgrraded to IE 7 and am quite happy with it. I like the RSS facility, I use it a bit.I tend sometimes to err on the cautious so I'll probably wait a little before upgrading and keep an eye on the lists and boards on the subject.
I presume that you are using IE 8 then? It's working fine for you? By the way I use screen reader Jaws 8. Tony----- Original Message ----- From: "Flor Lynch" <florlync@xxxxxx>

Tony, that old and yet new word, security. More of it. there are some things I haven't explored in IE8 yet, like Web Slices... which are something like RSS feeds. Not saying that anybody should update, but that, beyond screen reader version incompatibility, there may not be good reason to at least try it out. one can then uninstall IE8 if not satisfied, and so be restored to previous version of internet explorer.----- Original Message ----- From: "Tony Sweeney" <deirton711@xxxxxxxxx>To: <vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, July 30, 2009 12:24 AM Subject: [vip_students] Re: Internet Explorer 8 Hi All, Think that the IE 8 update is the question here! It's no guarantee but when you have an update for a programme well you would expect it to be kinda okay! Believe it or not patches or fixes can be problematic too. Like to know how IE 8 is of advantage to you? Love an update.

Some people have found it to be slow. What are those 'glithcs', anyway?----- Original Message ----- From: "Pauline Lawler" <paulinelawler14@xxxxxxxxxx>To: <vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, July 29, 2009 6:16 PM Subject: [vip_students] Re: Internet Explorer 8 Hello Loretta, I am on another list and for last few weeks the talk was about Internet 8 the concensus was to wait as there were a few glitches to be sorted. I am sure someone on list may be able to give more concrete advice.
