May I suggest you switch to ff?
Im using internet explorer It is both safer and faster, If you download FF it will let you keep your IE bookmarks even.

I'm still on IE6 :D
I'm pretty sure that IE8 blurs also. Can you check what version you have?

The solution is here: get rid of that pile of crap browser IE and switch to Opera (fastest browser ever, yes, faster than FF. And also start up times) or Maxthon. -------------

Opera is not faster than Firefox and Firefox is not faster than Opera. Every browser does the exact same thing when processing web pages. It's up to your computer to give out the speed. Most of the time Firefox is the fastest browser because it was specifically designed to work anywhere and on any computer. Opera was designed to work better on computers with higher RAM. Safari was designed to work best with Macs, IE with old computers, slow computers, etc. |

Opera's engine is targetted at embedded devices so I highly doubt it was esigned to use high amounts of RAM. It ran way better than Firefox on my old 192MB ram computer.
Also, Firefox use a single event loop to do everything, meaning if you have some javascript or flash running in one tab, it will slow down everything on the other pages. While Chrome use independant event loops, so it can react faster when you click on something. And there are many other ways to do the same thing in slower (or faster) ways, even if it's as simple as 'render a webpage'. |
