Hi

I've just made the mistake of upgrading to IE8.  I've lost all my graphs because IE8 as disabled all my add ons and I can't get them to enable.  Has anyone had the same problem? I called microsoft support but they were utterly useless.

Try this:
Tools
Manage Add-ons
Look for Flash and enable it. It should be under "Adobe Systems Incorporated"

I tried that. All the add ons are enabled but none of them are working.  Microsoft guys were so utterly useless that I'm just loading Mozilla and have vowed never to use IE again!! (But if anyone knows what I'm doing wrong I'd be grateful).

See, what you're doing wrong is trying to use IE in the first place.

Thanks everyone.  I've gone over to firefox and managed to get all my bookmarks back.  However, I had to completely reinstall flash and java.  Now I've got all my graphs back.

Big learning point; the guys at microsoft IE help are a**holes.
