Switching from IE7 to IE8

I am using IE7 for the fact that I am able to download videos using Realplaer
as I browse the Internet. I have tried this with IE8 and was not successful.
I also am not able to do puzzles at MSN.com on IE8. Is there something I am
doing incorrectly?

RealPlayer is an outdated player riddled with problems. Google 'realplayer crapware'. It
is also classified by some as malware because it installs advertising programs without
your consent.
