    FWIW I'm now mostly using Firefox 4, which has a nicer interface (with the search box). However, it doesn't seem to like animated GIFs very much. This page (with all those smilies down the right) absolutely crawls and makes my laptop's fan cut in because of the high CPU usage.

    Nice one Nick.

    Had to un-install as I suspect, ironically, it isn't compatible with the MS Partner Network website.

    Yes, but I don't like that as much. Don't ask me why.

    I have about half a dozen sites which only work with IE (I use Opera as my default browser) so, as long as they continue to work I should be OK.

    Failing that, I need to format/re-install my software anyway.

    Ollocks!

    You don't get any options during the install - not even a cancel button.

    You have been warned!

    Sounds good - if I can install alongside IE8 will give it a look see.
