IE 8 Exhibits Strange Behaviour

IE 8 exhibits strange behaviour after a period of time:
- The Back button doesn't work; although I can right click on the page and select Back.
- Select Favorites - the Add Favorites button doesn't work; although I can add favourites from the Menu Bar.
- Selecting Tools is slow and Internet Options is greyed out; although it works find from the Menu Bar.

The problems go away when I end all active browser applications from the Task Manager, ensuring that there are no iexplore processes running. If this doesn't work, I restart the PC.

Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
Dell Inspiron 545

I look forward to hearing from you on these items.

IE8 has been exhibiting strange behaviour since the day it was released, just read some of the forums on the net, i mean wouldn't you think if MS where offering something new why don't they get it up and running properly first before handing it out, i know this wont solve your problem, but haven't you considerted using a different browser !
