Well, its not helping that MS is making IE8 a mandatory download in the US. Trying to.

why not ? IE8 is amazing a truly masterpiece , microsoft finally did it .

1) By what, other than your own opinion, are you basing that statement on, or are you being sarcastic? From what I've heard at the very least its having the same, if not worse, security issues than every other version of IE.

2) You're missing the concept of "free." You don't ram something that's free down someone's throat. They've given no excuse of why it would be required, say like being needed in tandem with W7, but supposedly it will be forced on people still using W98. Anyone with IE6 just sitting in their system.

Heck, last week I received notice that MS wanted to put a monitoring program on my system to make sure that Windows programs are legal. Been getting messages ever since.
