Latest Internet Explorer 9 Release

24c · 16 Sep 2010

I have the Menu bar showing all the time - File-Edit-Favorites-Tools-Help - it is on the left side of the browser. I want it on the right side of the browser.
How can I this?

My biggest complaint about IE9 is the inability to set the menus etc. where I want them like I can in Firefox.

I think it will work for me great, as long as it stays fast..er. :P
All i use, i Opera, and now IE9 has a great GUI, and also has a sort of nice bookmark page in the new tab-menu. So it's pretty awsome. Its fast too.

I installed it, tried it and dumped it within 15 minutes. There are no Favorites bar or Menu bar. I already have Chrome, which I rarely use, so I don't need another "chrome" style browser.

The I.E.9 browser is not compatible with the Dell users forum unless it uses the compatibility mode.

You can get the Favorites bar if you right click next to the tabs and check the "Favorites bar" option.

Yeah, I hope that we can customize later on, 'cause I also want to make the buttons smaller like in IE8. And even though it's not too much of a big deal, I'm hoping the .gif speed issue gets fixed too.

Do you mean how IE8 had one on the right? Right click next to the tabs and click "command bar" if you mean something like that.

Been using it a bit more today, and it's becoming alright. I prefer having the favourites bar and command bar added to the UI like in IE8. It's still in beta so I can't say too much about performance for me, though I find it takes just a bit longer to load SF than Chrome. I notice it aligns everything and you can see the icons for each forum move in to position, where Chrome doesn't do that.

But IE was never good for web page layouts, so I guess it's nothing new lol.

-->> Favorites Bar..needs to be transparent.
I like the Favorites bar on all the time but its SOOO ugly.
Other than that like the download manager,look,single address/search bar, simple look UI.

I don't think I'm too crazy about the menu layouts, and I'm also a big fan of Firefox's ability to set up the menus the way you like. Maybe somebody will make an add on for that. Heh, maybe I will myself.

I do have to say that I'm really impressed with the fluidity of the page rendering and the overall loading speed of pages. The scrolling is impressive too. Scrolling in FF is a little bit jerky. IE9 behaves a bit more like I would expect a browser to run on a relatively high end machine like mine, so we'll see.

I'm a die hard FF user, but I'm going to give this a go for a week and see if I really like it.
