It's news to me that there *is* an IE 8 already. Last I heard, 7 had
just come out. But anyway, on past form, I would suggest that IE 8
corrects a huge raft of problems with IE 6 and IE 7, while at the same
time introducing a whole new range of problems of its own.
Unfortunately, this is what happens when your software isn't designed to
be secure in the first place, and you try to hack that in afterwards
while still retaining backwards compatibility.

LOL! Ain't that the truth...
