XP SP3 IE 8 Problems

I'm running a fresh install of XP SP3 in a virtual machine with IE 8 RC 1. With IE Tester 0.2.3 opening IE 6 or IE 5.5 tabs causes a crash. The other strange problem is that although the default IE is 8 RC 1 when I try to use the default tab it tries to open Firefox, which is the default browser. The later is more annoying that anything else, but the former is a major issue.

EDIT: Other IE version tabs seem to work well enough. I also do not see any add-ons or plugins in IE 8 RC 1.

Thanks for the feeback.

The new IETester version will be launched soon with changes, so maybe it will solve the issue. Otherwise, feel free to post an update on the thread so I will work on this.

Re: XP SP3 IE 8 Problems

Thanks for the quick response! I look forward to the new version. I really like the idea of being able to test on multiple ie versions with out running them in WINE or multiple VMs!

Re: XP SP3 IE 8 Problems

Well I downloaded the new version and when I try the default IE it now opens an IE 8 tab! Hurray! However, It sill crashes for IE 6 and IE 5.5 unless I open an IE 8 tab first. Then it works.

Also it crashes when I use the All IEs Tab. Thanks for all the great work! IE tester is probably my favourite Windows webdev app! Maybe we'll see a Linux version someday? :-p

I''l try to make it compatible with wine in the future. I am focusing on integrating DebugBar into IETester right now.
