Don't use any Google services, so I can't tell. Wouldn't be surprised if Google would pull yet another stunt towards MS though...

Yup, when I'd open YouTube I would get the "not responding" message. I couldn't do anything on the page. Sometimes refreshing would help.
The best solution I found was to just search videos through Bing. That way I still get YouTube and also get to stick it to Google haha

Just for balance - maybe Microsoft have deliberately or through incompetence crippied IE11 for Google sites?

Its very easy for a website to query the browser string, and provide different behaviour for different browsers (it happens all the time for mobile vs computer browsers)

I would be very supprised if Microsoft had any Google specific code in their browser. That's not to say Google havnt hit a bad bit of code in IE11. That said, i would expect the problem to be far more widespread, if it was an IE11 problem.

Have any of those having issues with Google stuff turned on "Tracing Protection" in IE? I've just found that if you turn it off when going to Goggle owned sited things load up quickly.

But using Firefox with Adblock Plus still loads the sites the fastest.

No way I don't want to be Scroogled again

And I thought that kind of advertising had no effect!
So I understand why you don't want to use Chrome. But why not Firefox or Opera?
However, I guess you don't use any Google services so this isn't a problem for you anyway.

The only google service that I use is Youtube... FireFox sucks on Windows 8... IE11 is almost perfect
