Microsoft touts trustworthy browsing with IE8

Sheila's Hamster

"Running IE6 is a risk to the user, and a pain in the ass for web designers/developer "

I so agree. IE6 was the bane of my life.

I'm glad Microsnot are highlighting security features and web standards compliance in the new browser rather than more unwanted bloatware features. Maybe they've finally got the message. Still it does strike me that they are setting their sites low, maybe only trying to stem the flow of IE users going to FF rather than trying to win back those who have already stopped using it.

exceptionally poor impulse control

"It's just that she seems to have, um, exceptionally poor impulse control."

You mean she gobbed at a Police officer! Now that's extraordinarily bad impulse control.
