I have been back and forth with a tech at SM for the last day and a half about this issue. I checked the Posertrusted.cfg file in my Flash folder and it has the correct path to my installation. I opened LSMGUI.html in Firefox and found that my BlockScript plugin was blocking it so I right clicked and selected Allow and the library displayed in Firefox. The last message I got from the tech was to go into Firefox and make LSMGUI my homepage and use that temporarily. But since Firefox is my main browser, I'm not going to make that my homepage by any means. However, I can still open it in a separate tab under Firefox and I may do that. But I informed the tech that it is my belief that the problem still lies with IE8 and not Firefox. LSMGUI still displays in IE8 as a blank page.

Further, I will state this: as nifty as the new library seemed at the time of creation, I believe sincerely that upon install the user should have been give the choice of installing the Classic Poser Interface or the New Interface.  I would have chosen the Classic Interface.
