Can you give us the URL of a page where you encounter this behavior?

Always state your full Windows version (e.g., WinXP SP3; WinXP 64-bit SP2;
Vista SP1; Vista 64-bit SP2; Win7; Win7 64-bit) as well as your IE version
when posting in an IE-specific forum or newsgroup. Please do so in your next
reply.

1. Does the behavior persist if you start IE in No Add-ons mode?

=> Start | (All) Programs | Accessories | System Tools | Internet
Explorer (No add-ons).

IE8 in all OSS]

2. Does the behavior persist if you Reset IE Advanced settings (RIES)?

3. What anti-virus application or security suite is installed and is your
subscription current? What anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)?
What third-party firewall (if any)? Were any of these applications running
in the background when you installed IE8?

4. Has a(nother) Norton or McAfee application ever been installed on this
machine (e.g., a free-trial version that came preinstalled when you bought
it)?

5. Why hasn't WinXP SP3 been installed by now? Extended Support for WinXP
(x86) SP2 ends on 13 July 2010. After that date, computers running WinXP
(x86) SP2 will NOT be offered any further critical security updates,
Automatic Updates will not work, and Windows Update website will not be
accessible until SP3 is installed.

What does it mean if my version of Windows is no longer supported?

Can't locate it at this moment, but there is an Options
setting somewhere to control whether that message is shown or
not. I -think- it's in the same area where you enable/disable
allowing sites to use your clipboard.

To the OP: YOu should switch your reader to Plain Text instead
of HTML. When I first opened this post (I read only in Plain
Text as many do), there was nothing showing but the Bear's
response to you; nothing of your post showed until I switched
it to HTML mode.

HTH,
