While browsing the forum I have noticed alot of people asking about the EULA accept bug and getting the same answer to try with google chrome.
I would just like to suggest that you have like a reminder that comes up when you pick 1.8, The reason i think this would be smart is it reduces the amount you need to say
"Switch to another browser, we recommend Google Chrome and try again"
