Hey Microsoft: Outlook Web Access does not work that well with IE 8

An add on to my angry post about Internet Explorer 8; having accessed my company’s Outlook Web Access application – the webmail side of the Exchange server we use (Exchange 2003), I was unable to forward an email using IE 8.

Google at least claims to have Chrome tested before unleashing it unto the world. Microsoft apparently does not even test its own products. Trashing mercilessly. I know.

I am having same problem, installing IE8 i cannot access email through OWA. IT allows me to log on than it will just freeze all IE.

Thanks Chris. Looks like I will not have a chance to follow the advice in the article you linked to as I removed IE 8. Hope it helps others who read this post, though.

The solution requires authority over the exchange server – if you dont or your provider wont upgrade – download opera 10 – it works great.

Go to Start > All Programs > right click on Internet Explorer > click Properiies > Shortcut > Advanced > check Run as Adminstrator > OK. Works for me.
