Hi Chuck,
thanks for letting us on the list know. would you mind letting GW
support know about this? they just informed me that I was the only
person reporting problems with IE 8, and so it must be a bad
configuration on my pc. I think it would help if they had an idea of
how many people were experiencing problems with IE8; it might get them
to devote more resources to the solution.
I'm sorry I can't offer you any more help than that.
