Yea, down load and install IE8. If you still have trouble, look for a update fix available online. Went through the same about 3 weeks ago.
ha ha ha sorry - I’m just so certain that the Window is closing on Windows.
Windows XP - ok yah sure.
Who knows down the road they might get their act together.
I was talking it over with a friend. Seems like the only thing they could possibly do is to re-write their gui for linux and see if they can make a go of it that way.
We shall see. PC’s are becoming dinosaurus Rex anyway. Big phone market right now.
One thing they could do to create some market share is to have their phones, plug right into an office docking station and double as a PC.
The ISO from the bit-torrent DID update, but it still seemed to take quite awhile.
I'm gonna try the IE 8 update on this install.
Yes, you need to manually install IE8 and maybe use the update fix.
XP is now officially “too much trouble” to install for personal use. The trouble involved is only justifiable if you must use it for business and nothing else will work.
It is past, past, past time to get off XP.
Windows 7 is still available for purchase and will be for a long time yet. Don’t want to spend money on 7? Fine. Just find a dead Vista machine and use the license.
But GET OFF OF XP. The final cutoff for updates is April. After that, it’s over anyway. No more security or compatibility with anything current.
