Hi Friends Yesterday I downloaded IE 8 in my windows sp system. Its wonder full and improves lot of new featues such as developer tools, compatabilty etc.. I think again Microsoft comes up with IE8 to NO 1 place.... what do you says guys?
Is it launched finally! because few days back i used it was BETA but i didn't like it I experience that it consumes much physical memory! have you checked ratings
IE 8 Final has been released on 19 March. Its great, A lot of new features. But, it still have few bugs regarding scripting sites. But overall its great, Microsoft make much improvement in this version.
No need to flame really everyone knows the truth The latest browser stats from one of my sites: 1.Internet Explorer 47.27% 2.Firefox 43.11% 3.Chrome 3.56% 4.Opera 2.95% 5.Safari 2.50%
IE8 is 11 years behind ALL other browsers in modern standards and practices. It cannot run XHTML, SVG, <canvas>, DOM standards since 1999, and all other browsers run more CSS3 and HTML5 elements than IE8. In fact, they did so years ago and Microsoft has already stated they have no plans to support those same modern items. IE8 is inept and incompetent.
IE8 is great improvement! but let's wait for firefox and opera's improvements.. IE will always have MORE security issues imho. more people use it than any other browser so I'd stay away if for personal use.. But as a CSS coder IE8 is great news!
I will have to download this and give it a try, I doubt it will replace my firefox, but ill give it a spin anyway.
Beta build was really very buggy. I downloaded and installed final version few hours ago. It has been working nicely.
Same old wine in new bottle, I've been among the biggest fans of IE but they're not keeping up with that...

Yes. In addition to IE8 adding those features which other browsers already had, you get the benefit of it being the most vulnerable to virus attacks AND being 11 years behind all other browsers in modern standards and practices. I have a feeling you would also like India's new Nano car.
I dont think IE8 is the best, i dont vote for any browse to the best. I'm using firefox 3 now, it's good but too heavy.
I'm surprised people still use IE. I'm more surprised Microsoft just hasn't bought Firefox either. Tons of cash on the balance sheet - time to use it.
