 Topic: Internet Explorer 9
Posted: 17 March 2010 at 5:41pm |
Microsoft seem to be serious with their new browser version of IE.
IE9 Seems to load faster than previous versions. It also displays websites content properly...
I also noticed that when using IE8 while surfing webwiz guide forums (wwf alpha) the page takes so long to load... however on IE9 it loads fast/normally like it would with Firefox.

They need to bring themselves up to speed with Firefox is my answer - okay so IE9 looks good, and as it should be, but whilst Microsoft loaded us with IE7, IE8 they probably lost stacks of ground on the far advanced and user friendly Firefox browser

I agree with MrTWS.. The problem that they are facing is that other web users have found something stable in Firefox.. and since IE has been so far behind with the makers of Firefox that it will take them along time to catch up when considering firefox is enhancing their product even more.. I think they are quick to jump into IE9 as a result of firefox's changes in websurfing.. I hope that Microsoft doesnt screw this one up as it might change how people surf the web entirely.. The best thing that Microsoft has going for them is Windows 7 they finally were listening to their customers..

I find Firefox to slow these days. What you need is a browser as fast as Google Chrome.
How does IE 9 compare with the speed of Chrome?

Google Chrome is fast, but there are so many things to dislike about it... and ironically, YouTube, a Google product, doesn't work well with Chrome! According to the test stats on the Microsoft site, IE9 outperforms both,
Google Chrome and Firefox. Reviews by PC Magazine
and other sources were all positive. Microsoft has re-written the
browser's JavaScript engine, added HTML 5 support, and other things.

The review sounds good. About time Microsoft produced a good browser.
