Re: Any problems with IE 8?

Typical vendor BS.

We have a few vendors that haven't fixed their sites to work with IE8 in
native mode, but in all cases switching IE8 to compatibility view for those
sites has solved the problem(s). I've yet to run across a site anywhere that
required us to uninstall .NET.

Keep up the pressure on the vendor.

Subject: [PCTECH] Any problems with IE 8?

Hi Folks,



We have a software vendor (Time and Attendance, etc) that is telling us
to dump IE8 and go back to IE7.



We have virtually identical PC's on Windows XP Pro patched with the
same
levels, etc. And some have this problems logging into this vendors site
and most don't. This app is nothing fancy, no flash, etc.



On one of the problem PC's they (the vendor) said they uninstalled .NET
Framework 3.5 SP1 and that fixed the access problem to them. Even
though
they admitted they had .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 installed on their PC and
didn't have this problem... Well correct that; just heard the problem
returned this morning on that PC.



When you try and login to their site it tells you you need to be
running
IE 5 or greater and then it gives you a link to Microsoft where it
takes
you to download - IE 8 ! The one they want you to remove...



I'm maintaining THEY (the vendor) have the problem and we can't be
removing this and that and then when we have no problem with ANY other
site.



So is anyone else having issues with IE 8 ?



Thanks !



Chuck
