Now is the sharp version of Microsoft's latest browser, IE9, to download. The browser may be praised, but the knobs Windows XP.
To use the new IE9 requires Windows Vista or Windows 7.

This has been known since the test version was released in September 2010, but now that IE9 really is here and receive praise, pointing many that it is in fact nearly half of all Windows users who left high and dry because it does not run on old Windows XP. According to Microsoft, it depends on how the show dealt with drivers in Windows Vista and Windows 7 in comparison to XP. Some argue that it may involve an attempt by Microsoft to drive the transition to Windows 7 from XP elderly.

New in IE9 is that we have previously reported a significant rapprochement with the established standards on the web. The bands to previous versions of Explorer, which in many respects, been in their own corners are cut.

Another significant improvement is the increased speed with what is known as hardware acceleration, as competitors are working on. Although JavaScript engine, called "Chakra" is now clearly on par with its main competitors - Firefox, Google Chrome, Apple Safari and Norwegian Opera.

IE9 is tied to Windows, including a feature that allows you to drag a tab down to the Windows startup list where it is stored and becomes active about the program - depending on how the website is programmed, for example, see new emails in an email service, or get a pop-up list of features on the site, such as start / stop the music on the radio.

Another new feature mentioned is the Asker in the control of Active-X technology.
