The Immunize feature of SpyBot is exactly the problem you’re encountering; if you remove the “Immunize” then performance will dramatically improve.
The problem with “Immunize” was not present in IE8 betas or RC.

Eric,
Thanks for the link,
I have Spybot L&G w/immunization & no addons.
I won't let my customers disable this feature as I consider Spybot S&D an indispensable asset and can't allow upgrading to IE8 until fixed.
Any news on when IE8 Development will cease causing this debilitating delay?

PS - I saw a lot of grips about cpu hogging issue during Beta and waited until you guys said it was gone to download - but I guess the issue is still open.
I didn't install ie8 till last week.
Thanks,
G.
