Yes, I even went back too it.
IE8 kept taking forever to open for some reason.

WOW That speeded my IE8 WAY UP.
I don't have Spybot installed, so I didn't know if it would work, but it did. (I may have had SD installed previously and uninstalled it, don't remember)
Could you tell me how you found this fix? I was wondering if it will affect my security, etc.
However, I would still like you to know how AWESOME this fix is. I was actually going to try a clean install to see if that fixed my ie8 speed problem, but no more.

Glad to hear it worked for you! Kind of a nuisance that we have to go through a bunch of steps to get it working like it should, but whatever.
It took me literally 2 seconds of Googling to find...

HI
I see IE 8 can be downloaded now.
Can I go back to IE7 if the new version gives me problems or if I just don't like it for now?
