Hosted Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 running on IE 8.0

Microsoft has released Internet Explorer 8.0 and so I installed the new version on my MSI U100 (running on XP SP3 32BIT) and on my HP tx2650 (running on Vista SP1 32BIT). Of course I also tried to run our Hosted CRM on IE 8.0 and I must say, so far, so good (ONLY CERTIFICATE ERROR). Please see screenshots below. The latest version of IE 8.0 can be downloaded here.
