Microsoft's one-year effort developing Internet Explorer 9 is coming to fruition as it readies its browser release tonight.

The new browser will be available for download at 9:00 p.m. Pacific time here. Those using the release candidate version of the browser will get an automatic update to the release-to-Web (RTW) version. IE 9 is being launched as part of the South by Southwest event currently taking place in Austin, Texas. Ryan Gavin, senior director of Internet Explorer business and marketing, talked about some of the highlights leading up to the launch in a phone chat on Friday.

RTW Improvements
Microsoft typically bakes in features by the time of its RTW releases. The development team assessed more than 17,000 comments in creating this final release, according to Microsoft officials. Gavin described some of the improvements that happened from the time of the release candidate to this final RTW product.
