Warning about IEPro 2.4.7 !

hi !

IEPro is a nice program that adds some improvements to Internet Explorer, like fx. DNS-prefetch.

but a warning about IEPro 2.4.7: it comes with "ASK-Toolbar" !!!

for those who doesn´t know: ASK-toolbar is considered a security risk by experts !

after installing IEPro as admin, i switched to my user-account and started IE8, and then found another "suggestion" to install !?
however i got so upset, that i didn´t take a note of exactly what is was, i just uninstalled it.
but i think it was some extra "menu"...

Last time I checked, IEPro wasn't fully working with IE8. Has this changed?

Yes, IE7Pro works well with IE8.

I just checked their forum and it seems that it's still buggy. I may take a snapshot and give it try anyway

i use ie7pro in ie8 on vista for nearly one year now, and i can tell you that there are only two issues i found, first is that the crash recovery page does not work propperly because of an error in layout. the other one was a little tricky, i experienced occassional browser crashes without any visible reason while loading pages. however after a while of trial and error i figgured out that this was caused by "faster ie" and as soon as this is disabled i have no crashes anymore. so except crash recovery there is effectively no problem with ie7pro and ie8.
