| No issues with IE8 and it does render websites better than IE7. Security has also improved.
IMO it is as good as Firefox now but these things come down to personal preference.

| Do the following if you want rid of messages.
1) Start
2) Settings
3) Control panel
4) Windows security
5) Select Automatic updates to OFF
If aint broke don't try and fix it.

| certain websites dont like IE8 and are not compatible, eg yahoo games.
Firefox is a much easier browser to use and is in my opinion more secure.

That will be because of the rendering engine in IE7, they had to write workarounds for IE so that the site looked the same in all browsers.
As IE8 has now caught up they will have to re-write some of their page for it to display OK in IE8
