ishan_rulz Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Yeah, I saw that earlier this morning. IMHO, Microsoft's just making everyone download IE, after all the rifts they've had in Europe. Trying to beat Opera, FF, Google, Chrome, etc. Simplicity is hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted June 18, 2009 Moderators Share Posted June 18, 2009 They'd have to pay me ten grand just to install that rubbish again after it caused my system that severe slowdown which affected so many other applications. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ishan_rulz Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 I doubt they even have that $10,000 there O.o Probably it'll just fade out, and no one will remember Simplicity is hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
login123 Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 That promotion is thought provoking. I agree with you, hazelnut, not sure it's worth it, but 10 K might buy a tank of gasoline?? The CCleaner SLIM version is always released a bit after any new version; when it is it will be HERE :-) Pssssst: ... It isn't really a cloud. Its a bunch of big, giant servers.

Moderators DennisD Posted June 18, 2009 Moderators Share Posted June 18, 2009 That move smacks of desperation, and a latent admission that they have a browser that just doesn't cut it. No thanks MS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icedrake Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Are they trying to bribe us into getting IE8? Seriously MS, you need to do better than that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ishan_rulz Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Lol! Desperation much The other they can do is make a better IE9.. Just the way they made Windows 7 after Windows Vista Simplicity is hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalj Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 http://www.microsoft.com/australia/ie8/competition/ Ohhh. That's why IE8 is such a crap. They focused so much in making IE8 the only one to see this "page" that they forgot about the rest of the internet!

Winapp2.ini Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 If I was them I'd hide it on 4chan, to corrupt more than just the computers of people wanting money. winapp2.ini additions thread winapp2.ini github Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ishan_rulz Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 A strong marketing effort behind Internet Explorer 8 right now seems to be hitting all the controversial buttons. First came ?Browse for the better?, a US food donation program supported by IE8 downloads. Followed by Microsoft Australia?s ?Ten Grand is Buried Here?, an online treasure hunting game exclusively for IE8 users. And most recently ?Get the facts?, a feature comparison chart comparing IE8 to other browsers. If you agree with ?no publicity is bad publicity?, then they sure got their money?s worth.
