Agreed. However there are two ways around this.....
The best way for me is to enable the Menu Bar and use the Favorites from there....
The other more space hogging way is to "Pin" (click the green arrow) the favorites to the left side....
But yeah, it is less intuitive then earlier versions of IE
Hehe... this one annoyed the heck out of me too
However you can change the default location by clicking Tools, View Downloads, at the lower left downloads box there's a blue hyper link named Options click it and choose a location of your choice.....
On the downloading I REALLY wish they would have left it like it was in IE8 where you could choose on the fly where you wanted your downloads to go. I have a Downloads partition that has various folders for all sorts of stuff so I don't always want stuff I download going to the same location. This new download system takes that choice away. Sure you can change the download location as I pointed out above, but everything you download goes there with out letting you change your mind
I basically feel the same as you though I've worked my way around some of the issues.
Thanks
Anyway I feel your gripes, and agree.
One thing that I really do like about IE9 is that it can be uninstalled by simply uninstalling the update.
Saved me from a reinstall of Windows.
I think you're stuck with those tabs, Jacee.
Hi there
The spell check is probably quite tricky because for example if IE is installed in standard English what would you use : American or British.
Also if you change your Windows display language then IE spell checker will be rather pointless -- especially if you are posting in say ENGLISH while your display language is say Welsh or whatever.
For example see attachment IE8 in Icelandic (Windows 7 English version with Icelandic Language pack installed) -- Not sure how a spell checker would work here.
Google Chrome doesn't have this problem as it assumes English although I haven't checked to see if it uses US or UK spelling.
Incidentally IE9 doesn't change the menu language etc from English even if you have the Language packs installed -- could be a problem in some cases.
Cheers

Its easy if you use a modern browser like Opera , just have to select the word & right click it , dictionaries is the bottom option. The default is us.engThe spell check is probably quite tricky because for example if IE is installed in standard English what would you use : American or British.

I still don't get why(and it did this in the Beta and the RC) it WILL NOT remember login info for some sites, but will for others. It has worked for a majority of the sites, but like, here, Vista Forums, and the 8 Forums, it never asked, and I can't figure out how to trick it into actually asking me if I want it to "remember" the logins.
On the problem with the Favorites on the left, Shawn just wrote a tut: https://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials...left-side.html This may not be as it was, but it may help.
What I miss is the little triangle next to the forward button (top left). Seems to be AWOL.
Really not a permanent open and close solution though. Only temporary once you click on the X.
