"In a nutshell, Compatibility View allows content designed for older web browsers to still work well in Internet Explorer 8."

If theyve designed IE8 to NOT work well with some websites then they should be shot

I'd just ditch IE completely if I were you. Use a decent browser like firefox or opera.
