it is my "understanding" that there are TWO Internet Explorer's in Win8, a "start" version and a "desktop" version.

Programs tab of internet options. I think Win8 installed default choice is "Let Internet Explorer decide". I set favorites to always open in desktop IE.

I used the trial Win8. I think I ran Firefox and Proxo. As I recall, Win8 seemed to run fast enough on a 2005 PC, but I never installed any antivirus, and didn't modify Win8's firewall settings.
I also don't recall the hyper-paranoid UAC as in Vista.

Classicshell fixes most file explorer defects, but I was never able to tweak Win8 to work as well as XP.
