I was posting a reply to a message (http://foldingforum.org/viewtopic.php?f ... 97#p134693) which contains a rather long Code block.
I found that the reply message box was having a real problem allowing me to edit the message (especially when the code block was in the visual display area).
Does anyone else have this problem?
I am running IE 8 on WinXP 64.

You mean like the text keeps jumping around when you want to add something at the very bottom making it almost impossible to see what your typing?ParrLeyne wrote:Does anyone else have this problem?

Yes. It's aggravating!

It's the thing you use to get Windows updates. Try doing that with Firefox.toTOW wrote:What is IE8 ? I though it was only meant to download Firefox ...

So it only has two usages ... download firefox and windows updates ... I wish we could use something else for Windows Update so that I could save some space on my HDD

If you use FF 3.5.8 with IE Tab add-on, then you never have to even open IE for anything. I just use it to import website into OneNote as FF add-on is experimental.
