Much more stable than IE7 thanks to the separate processes per tab feature, HTML/Java/CSS standards rendering is improved - closer to FF/Opera now and it's a little faster at loading pages but still not a patch on the other browsers. So like all new IE releases, it gets better but it's still behind.

Now I find the comment about "low memory" interesting. Searching Google is appears to be a very popular subject. Two weeks ago I re-furbished a second hand Dell computer for my daughter and installed FF3.5 and various other programs enabling her to use ADSL.

Using FF 3.0.11 Didn't like 3.5 and wont use I.E. as it's poor in comparison.

When downloaded from Windows update it installs only the parts need to complete the upgrade. It also means errors within IE7 may remain unrepaired. Downloaded from Microsoft and installed direct from the hard drive will overcome that problem. It won't take no for an answer and overwrites everything.

Looking for a DVD/CD drive to read/write both - and + media. Found this on Ebay:- HP 16X/48X SATA DVD-ROM Drive w/ +R read (AH047AA) Shop says it will read any media but has no idea what w/ +r means ? I suspect it will only read + media, am I correct
