    It`s OK, I don`t like the small address area, I am staying with IE8, I like it. A browser is a browser, nothing to loose sleep over.
    Snap, they have changed it far to much, it looks much like Firefox but at least you get a small google add on with Firefox with IE9 and 10 you don't. Therfore I will be staying with IE8 and when it's no longer supported I will move to another browser but it won't be IE9 or 10 or 11 unless they change it.

    I like it overall. The only thing that plucks me is that I still have to install Adobe Flash activex control to use some web sites. I'm not going to Install Adobe Flash though. I'll just no longer visit those web sites. I may miss my online news radio though. This is a problem.

    I actually liked IE10. Normal web browsing on external sites seemed excellent. What I could not get past was severe delays accessing 'internal stuff' through the web browser. If I wanted to visit my router's web page on 192.168.1.1 it would often take about 10-15 seconds of 'waiting for response from ......' before it loaded the admin page. Same went for accessing one of NAS drives admin pages on 192.168.1.8, similar delay. I even had intermittent delays accessing my ftp drive. Totally miffed really. Why external 'web' pages were great and internal stuff was prone to wait for response (sometimes quick access but no real pattern).

    That was a deal breaker for me - although now youtube is doing HTML5 video I noticed IE10 is much more fluid and less glitch running full screen video than IE9. Totally torn. I am tempted to try IE10 again. I updated via website before, maybe I should do it via windows update this time now it is being offered.

    Would flushing DNS help this sort of thing with trying to access internal devices via their browser UI?

    Thanks,

    I thought about it, read its details and decided I needed it as much as I need W8, which would be never. Yes I have tried W8 but it only took a few hours before I found IT very trying.

    Nope - there is no DNS involved when surfing to 198.168.1.8 or the like. There is no domain to turn into an IP address (which is what DNS does). You are already starting with an IP address for most internal devices. Maybe clearing the temp files might help, but I don't see how or why temp files would matter much.

    Ok thanks. I will try some point over the next couple days to redeploy IE10 via windows update and see what happens. I am totally perplexed at what I initially saw with problems / delays accessing internal device admin pages. No such problem with firefox 19 which provides instant access and smooth HTML full screen playback.

    Well I tried to update again via windows update. Same issues with accessing some internal devices browser interfaces. Other than that I will say it seems very fast and otherwise good. But I don't really notice the speed difference running a cache SSD. as much as I hate being behind on updates the intermittent delays to my device interfaces outweighs the good so I went back to IE9. Suspect it's early bugs and compatibility problems as the devices were designed when IE8 was the king. Maybe in time IE10 will iron out some niggles. Til then it's IE9 for me, it's more compatible across the web and really doesn't seem much different

    Well, it's ok I guess. Except one thing.. I have Forte Agent 7.0, and after installing IE10 instead of opening
    the mail client when a mailto link is clicked in FF19.0.2 it repeatedly starts IE (1-2 per second).
    Setting it to use Agent as default (inside Agent) or set it to use Agent in FF doesn't help.
    I guess they've made the mailto protocol handling incompatible with its previous iteration or something.

    I'm apparently not alone experiencing this as I noticed someone complained about the same, but with another email client.

    Was IE9 color managed? I don't know, I skipped IE9.But IE10 is and that is one of my requirements for photography.
    As far as performance, it is about equal to Firefox, which has been my main stay.

    Is your system ICC Version 4 ready?

    I see no difference between IE9 and IE10 on that test page.
