Top 10 Reasons to Like IE 9

I never saw that happen when I tried IE9.
All I got was a few too many crashes for my liking.

Sounds like you have got some other problems.

I've said it elsewhere - and I'll continue elsewhere.

Built in spell check. Why continue to ignore such a simple and fundamental function?

I tried the I.E.9 Beta and decided I didn't like it and didn't need another Chrome like browser. Maybe when they come out with the final version I'll try it again. I had to run it in compatibility mode for my bank and several other sites that I visit regularly.

Sorry, I need the speed of Chrome. IE9 just doesn't open or navigate fast enough.

Why is ie9 faster on my netbook then chome? I dont think chome is faster then ie9. also ie9 built in java is very fast.

I found IE9 faster than Chrome too.

One feature I missed from IE8 is the drop-down arrow to the right of the forward & back arrows that shows pages you have just visited. It allows you to easily go back to a specific page. Handy when you have just looked at pile of pics from some websites and just want to go back the fist page of the article.

Wasn't there in IE9. Using the history as a workaround seemed clumsy to me.

Hopefully MS will fix that for the Release Candidate due 28-Jan-11.

agree from past experience IE 4 or 5 or 7 if not mistake it the most popular before mozila came in to tech world. i cant remember the other one name of browser in that era. Then new langguage came and some upgrade IE become unreliable to work. Still like netcaptor. but now i prefer mozila. hehe.

Maybe Microsoft paying more on OS dev.

I can't speak for you or your equipment. The simple fact for me is that Chrome loads faster and renders faster than IE9 on my work desktop, home desktop and home laptop.

IE9 also jumbles text on websites quite often, and refuses to play some videos on websites. I understand that it is in beta, and if those things are fixed by official release, I'll give it another try.

I.E.9 relies on your video card for the acceleration and speed. Chrome does it with software. I would suspect your video card is what is dragging down I.E.9.
