Internet Explorer 8

[KempsonFox]

I have just updated my computer and it has installed internet explorer 8.

Now for some reason everytime I switch the internet on there is no history of any websites visited in the address bar at the top of the screen, so I have to re-type every website I want to go on.
Anyone know how to fix this?

Also, everytime I go out of talkingballs and come back on I have to log in even though I've got the 'Remember Me' box ticked.
Help, it's driving me mad.

No but I'd be interested to know because I have the same. Weirdly it's only happening on one of the 2 pcs we upgraded at the same time.

I have used Chrome ever since IE7 turned out to be the slowest pile of junk Microsoft have ever invented. I still need to use it occassionally however since Chrome isn't fully supported by some site (e.g. the Sky Player).

Is IE8 any faster?

Sounds like you have the settings turned to clear your cache and cookies everytime you close the browser, I do that (not the cookies) simply to hide the porn URLs. Tools->options->something like privacy should be about right

Yeah they can be funny about that in the library.
