The value of your feedback in developing the product is hard to overstate. We want to thank the millions of people who have installed and used Internet Explorer 9 during pre-release testing. With the Release Candidate, for example, we took to heart over 17,000 pieces of feedback about IE9. Your help and feedback were crucial and informed the changes we made.Īcting on your feedback has been a key part of this release. We delivered site-ready HTML5 in the product and treated more emerging technologies as part of HTML5 Labs in order to get your feedback and respect your time. We blogged-a lot-to make sure that developers had the right information to succeed. We also regularly released “test drives” to illustrate what the platform makes possible, along with comprehensive tests that we submitted to Web standards bodies. Our new approach started with a regular cadence of meaningful platform previews. An important factor was the Web community’s engagement as the IE team took a more open and transparent approach across the nine platform releases of IE9.

IE9 went from early preview to final release in less than a year, and in that time became the fastest growing beta of IE ever, with over 40 million pre-release downloads and 2% usage share on Windows 7. Interoperable: With hardware-accelerated HTML5, developers can use the same markup across browsers to deliver a new class of Web experiences that feel more like apps than sites. Trusted: IE9 offers industry-leading protections (like SmartScreen) for the real-world threats (such as malicious sites and phishing scams) that consumers face every day on a sometimes-hostile Web.

IE9 shows how your Web experience and browser are only as good as the operating system they run on:įast: With IE9, the Web delivers a new level of performance by unlocking the power of the PC hardware through Windows.Ĭlean: With IE9, consumers can keep sites at the center of their browsing experience, pinning them to the taskbar and interacting with them the same way they do applications. Whether they improve these glitches or not, I'm moving to the main concourse of Mozilla.With this set of browser releases, the best experience of the Web is on Windows. This is not to mention the fact that some buttons on websites simply do not work on IE9 - when this happened with random links it's frustrating, when it occurs with Paypal, my Bank's website and the like it's frankly unbearable. It's more than a little frustrating that the top of the page or article gets shown and as you scroll down it all gets fudged out.
I don't understand why they would let any version, beta or not, be released whereby such universal websites as Amazon, Wikipedia and Googlemaps DON'T LOAD PROPERLY. I 'upgraded' from IE8 to IE9 around a week ago and I've now reach my limit - I'm abandoning ship too.
So, out of the kindness of my heart I have stuck by IE when all else haven jumped ship to Mozilla. Silly to call the Microsoft money-making power house an underdog, but it seems to be a fallen giant, and always got the flak for everything that goes wrong. I have always stuck by Microsoft because I tend to favour the underdog. Watch out: the browser wars just got exciting again.īy Anonymous reviewed on November 13, 2010 In all, the latest version of Microsoft Internet Explorer 9 is faster and prettier than its predecessors - and really throws down the gauntlet to its competitors.
New features like hang recovery and InPrivate Filtering provide Internet Explorer a stabler and more secure web experience than most other browsers. IE 9 features decent support for HTML 5 (the new generation of media-rich websites use this language), and now finishes the Acid 3 test with a near-perfect 95/100. Internet Explorer 9 also offers improved speed and performance, as well as better compliance with web standards and new technologies. The new Performance Advisor add-on identifies add-ons that are slowing Internet Explorer down (a feature badly needed in Mozilla Firefox). IE 9 also lets you 'pin' websites to the Superbar and allows you to bookmark your favorite websites as 'applications' in your OS. Among the new features included in Internet Explorer 9 are better integration with the Windows operating system and a seriously beefed-up security system.
