IE8, that's good Microsoft still supports XP,
But really it's too bad there's no Directx upgrades for XP. XP with DX11 would make a killer gaming platform.

It would be like putting a superharger on a Model-T Ford. It would be a killer model-T, but it would still be a Model-T
I've not been very happy with IE8, particularly in relationship to Bookmarks. When I import Bookmarks from FireFox, of which FireFox doesn't have any restrictions on Character Symbols, but IE8 does. When I attempted to remove the Imported Bookmarks from IE8, either on my XP Boot or W7 Boot I got these lovely error messages:
