I understand that this thread is old but I have have just solved my problem with dropped letters in IE8 at last. I have disabled the Skype Add On. Open IE8, go to Tools, Manage Add Ons, scroll down to Skype and disable. No more dropped letters and IE8 opens much quicker. I've no idea why, but it worked for me!
