| Ie 9....
Has anyone that has downloaded this had issues with getting it to work properly? Had feature, functionality or compatibility issues problems? I've been taken to task with this all day long finally had to uninstall it.
Anyone that has gotten it to work and likes or dislikes it, weigh in... |

| Thanks for the heads-up about the issues, guys. I will avoid this update for now. I've already been burned by the Firefox 4.0 update... | |

Opera is also a solid option. | I've got Chrome loaded and have been trying it out. It definitely loads a little faster. | |

I've searched for updates for the toolbar and have come up empty, so I'm now using IE8 to access those sites without having to do logins every time (Norton Toolbar still works with it).

I found a work around that made it work and I have had no problems since. You might give it a try. How To Bypass Firefox 4.0 Beta?s Incompatible Add-on Error and Install Extensions Anyway - How-To Geek
Just use this value: extensions.checkCompatibility.4.0

| Thanks for the tip, I was getting ready to try that when I discovered that Norton had just released a hotfix patch to remedy the problem. I've bookmarked that link in case I have more trouble in the future, tho. | |

| I finally got tired of having the update pop up in windows updates for ie9. So I felt sort of roped into finally loading it. I have avoided it for weeks since it came out, so we shall see. I do wish I could customize the page setup a little bit though. That is my initial impression. | |
