Internet Explorer 8 ~ Are you having problems too? ~ UPDATE

A few days ago I downloaded Internet Explorer 8, and almost immediately started having issues with page loads. I keep getting the message "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage". I wouldn't be too bothered if it was just occasionally...but it's almost continual, and really slows the process of getting things done.

If I'm persistent and keep repeating the search (or keep hitting the go button) it usually will connect. It also happens when I'm surfing posts on A|R. It's almost like I'm being timed-out and it's taking 5-10 times longer getting things done. It's driving me crazy!

Does anyone have a solution, a change in some setting.....please help if you can.

Has anyone tried IE8 and reverted to IE7 due to bad performance. Is Active|Rain experiencing any issues which are exacerbating this one?

Thanks

UPDATE: DO NOT USE SYSTEM RESTORE TO REMOVE IE 8, GO TO ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS AND DELETE

Swine Flu Map ~ It's Spreading - Be Prepared...UPDATE #2


HERE'S THE LINK TO THE NEW MAP
http://flutracker.rhizalabs.com/

By now you are probably aware the WHO (World Health Organization) has raised the alert for this flu to Level 4. There are 6 levels of alerting, raising the bar to Level 4 is not good news.
UPDATE: 4/30/09, WHO HAS GONE TO LEVEL 5
UPDATE: 5/1/09, Mexico has delisted the number of deaths from 168 to 12....HUH???

Click here to read about the WHO and see and understand their pandemic alert chart

The same precautions you would take for any type of influenza apply here as well. Most important is covering your mouth when you cough or sneeze combined with lots and lots of hand washing. There is a Google map which is updated with each new case of Swine Flu. Keep an eye on your area and if it appears and starts spreading please take it seriously.

Remember the Influenza pandemic of 1918-1919 killed between 40 and 50 million people. It's estimated that 25 million were killed in the first 25 weeks. Some estimates have the number of deaths as much as 100 million....so I suppose they don't really know, but it's a lot. Not just the old and infirm, most victims were healthy young adults. Please be careful and act responsibly....stay home if you're not feeling well.

Keep this map handy and refer to it often

Have you CALIBRATED your Monitor lately.........


Those who know me on Active|Rain....know I love taking and sharing pictures

Recently I learned that what I was seeing on my screen was not what my friend Debi Boucher was seeing on her screen. We have lots of conversations about photography and related topics :-) What happened was over small increments of time, my monitor was getting darker and darker...not noticeable on a daily basis. I use 2 monitors, and while the secondary one is newer I just love my 4 year old Samsung.

What I want to share here, after much online searching, is the best adjustment calibrator I found. The last stages are very technical (I avoided them in the essence of time) but there are several stages in the beginning which will help you know if your monitor is doing it's best and will guide you in correcting any deficiencies.

Color is a funny thing....the more alike we see, the better we understand. I'll be curious to see how many monitors out there are out of whack like mine was. Mine's still not perfect but running about 90% or better. I'll take that on a 4-year old.
