I have downloaded IE 9 Beta from the Softpedia link but haven't installed it yet. Looking at the properties for the downloaded files shows a Product Version of 9.0.7930.16406. Isn't that an older build?

Hello Kerry,

That would be the original IE9 beta version from the download link on the first page.

Thats what I thought, just wanted someone to confirm that for me.
I believe I tried that build already and it stopped working for me after a short time. I ended up un-installing it. For some reason IE 9 beta doesn't play well with my system. I've tried two or three builds and they crap out after a while. I'm going to be doing a clean install sometime after Christmas and likely try again with the latest and greatest build. I might even wait for the final release depending on what the release date ends up being.

Theres no need to uninstall the previous version, the update might come to WU in a few days

Thanks, just was curious - I expected to see more updates / downloads for a beta release

could someone confirm which of these recent releases is the latest version..

I have just downloaded the one from Yowan's link above, and it shows this version No.



- is this now superceded by the MSUpdates version..??..??

- first attempt at overwriting the "Yowanvista version" failed
- is this because it's in fact a further update on the MS one..??

OK, I'll rephrase - what's the version no. of the MSUpdate issue..??




IE9 really IS the bee's knees..
