    I keep getting this message, how do I get rid of it?

    "Internet Explorer is currently running with add-ons disabled. Click here to manage, disable or remove your add-ons."

    I had just installed it and didn't touch any settings yet

    I love the new IE8 RC1 but I had the same problem when I first installed it. codyg_ie8team responded immediately with this "fix" -- but the problem spontaneously disappeared on its own! Here's his advice though, for anyone who needs it:


    "If you receive a message that all add-ons are disabled every time you start Internet Explorer, follow these steps to help resolve the problem:
    In Internet Explorer, click Tools, and then click Internet Options.
    Click the Advanced tab, and then click Reset. Follow any on-screen directions.
    Close and re-open Internet Explorer."

    If this doesn't work, Cody suggested that you contact him to see if he can help.
