Default Anyone else having problems with DF and IE8?

Hey everyone,

Over the past week, DF has been acting wierd for me. I thought it was my computer, but everything else works find. On DF, I am getting lag in my keystrokes and its even skipping characters if I type to fast. Not all the time though, but most of the time (like right now it seems fine). Also, if I leave DF idle and work in another tab, after a while Ill get a pop up saying IE has stopped working and to close the program. Anyone else having issues?

We've been talking about. The search/archives isn't working either. Hopefully the IB guys will get it fixed.

Alright, sweet. I cant really complain since the site is provided for free to us users, but I just want to make sure I didnt get a virus or something and its only affecting my DF use.

I downloaded Internet Explorer 9 (I didnt know it existed until now) and it seemed to fix my issues. Hopefully that will be it for problems while trying to get my hourly dose of DF.

Im smart enough not to watch that stuff on my computer. I find it much safer to just pick up a magazine .....

My luck it probably is a virus, and trying to destroy one on Vista sucks. With XP, you could just go in to System32 in safe mode, find the newest files that were named something a virus would be named, and click delete. Vista isnt as easy to work around.
