A cynic might suggest that they've introduced a "feature" which buggers you up unless you're running Chrome!

However, serious answer, I've not noticed anything unpleasant in IE8.

Are you well, by the way, Draig? Long time no speak.

Well that settles it, now I know I've done something -- I have ...

This may be me [inevitably I have probably done something], but is google behaving differently for anyone this afternoon? I don't recall changing any settings, but now, clicking on a result opens that site in a new tab in firefox -- which I can't seem to change.
