Hi John,

On my computer, IE8 is much faster than 6 or 7.  IE9, however, has given me 
lots of trouble so i've gone back to IE8 on windows 7 computers.

We could certainly slow the aging process down if it had to work its way 
through Congress!

I got rid of IE 8 on my netbook completely, it was slowing it down to the
