I loaded IE8betaII when it was available, here are some of the issues but the
most frustrating of all is that IE8 does not work with Microsoft Sites...
* Does not work properly with the Microsoft Parter Web Sites, specifically
the Training Section.
* Does not work properly if there are a very large number of Favorites
saved, the whole browser fails (IE7 works fine)
* Is not compatible with about 5-10% of existing Web Sites, example
www.citizenwatch.com .
* Auto On-Line insert does not work properly

And your Suggestion is...?

=> IE Beta Public Newsgroup Support: microsoft.public.internetexplorer.beta

Via the web-interface:
http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/list/en-us/default.aspx?dg=microsoft.public.internetexplorer.beta

Via your newsreader:
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.internetexplorer.beta

[Yes, I understand that the link you may have used probably brought you to
IE General newsgroup. We're trying to get that fixed.]
