GWT Dev Mode For IE8

I see that the GWT Development Mode plugin is available for Internet Explorer 8, but the browser crashes when I start it. The stack trace says there's an error in oophm.dll. I'm running it on a VirtualBox instance with Windows 7. Are there any special steps for setting up dev mode in IE8?

Consider trying superdevmode?

Disclaimer: I don't know if it works on IE 8 -- but I think it was designed to work on any modern broser. One main reason for creating it was to get rid of the need of maintaining various browser plugins...

Dev mode doesn’t seem to play well with Windows 7. Try downloading a windows XP vm from: http://www.modern.ie/en-us/virtualization-tools

You’ll also need to manually install the dev mode for IE 8 plug in from the following location because the built-in link for IE 8 is broken: http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/svn/tags/2.5.0/plugins/ie/prebuilt/
