Uninstall any IE updates.

I haven't tried recently, but I know that Avant Browser (using the IE 8 engine) will work.

I believe MyIE2 (and/or an older version of maxthon) will work as well, but again, requiring the IE8 engine.

Also there's a portable version of IE8 beta floating around. It uses VMWare Thinstall. I am able to use it with IE7 installed, but I'm not sure how it will work with a later version of IE installed. The md5 hash is below.

I'm certainly going to hold on to it for that time when I'm forced to switch from XP.

Code: [Select]

c:\>md5sum -b "IE8 Portable.exe"

b5be2cf02d6aaa8f1321b66e0ba44cfa *IE8 Portable.exe

c:\>md5sum --version
md5sum (GNU coreutils) 5.3.0

I've also heard of another app called IE Collection. I'm not sure how it works.

Try clearing your cache.
MCD5 was never meant to work with firefox.

Don't know how any people I have run into that have had a problem with IE11 access. It is not currently supported but because Microsoft deams it an important update people who have auto updates turned on all get it only to have to take it out.

I've uploaded the portable ie8 to 4shared but I'm not sure if I'm allowed to link to executable files here. If anyone needs the link pm me.

MOL doc now for IE11 compatibility mode.

I've been able to use IE 11 on an MCD 4.0 using compatibility mode, though I haven't tried any backups or exports yet.

Some of our techs are running IE11 and the only issue they had was having to run it compatibility mode. We tested it on MCD 6.0 sp1

Yeah, MCD 6 doesn't need java to do backups and thats where it fails most often.
