Internet Explorer 9 Available now!

[Vertex]

I'm not using that "show tabs on a separate row" because it gain some space on my screen as i like larger view and do not mind compress the bars.

Well I don't mind if the row for the tabs gain more space, there's still a lot left since the rest of the toolbars are hidden by default anyway. My Firefox still has more space consumed by those toolbars right now.

PS: Back buttons is soooooo big! But so much faster to get back or go next page, so i'll pardon MS not having make it a full round button!

Yeah, I noticed that one too. They should have made the back button a full circle cause its better to look at it that way.

IE9 then got an idea from Chromium Browser to infuse tha address bar with the search bar. I just learned how to add a new search provider which is Google into it which I also made default.

But one thing I'm really upset about is that download manager because there is a download operation which I decided to pause and when I resumed it, it began to download from the start again which is annoying. Firefox's own download manager is a lot better because it would at least continue the progress of paused downloads.

I got the blurry txt also, some dropboxes get horizontal lines in them, kinda annoying hope they get it fixed.

The back button issue It takes me back, so it's all good.

When you get this, you might see if using compatibility view in IE9 for it may be able to help any. Sometimes it can help.

Guess I will still need a third party download manager for IE 9?

Only if you wanted to. IE9 has a built-in download manager.

Will try that next time it happens, hasen't yet today.

Have been doing some browser maintenance, clear cache and history,flush DNS cache, etc., been having trouble connecting to SF and EF.
This might clear up a few of these issues.

Hello Dave,

If you keep getting connection issues to SF and EF, then you may have a corrupted cookie. See if deleting them using the link below may be able to help afterwards.

If not, then it may be a issue with your ISP's DNS server. You can test to see by using Google Open DNS to see if it works using it instead until your ISP has their DNS sorted.

Brink,

Thanks for your tips in this thread. Much appreciated.

Only if you wanted to. IE9 has a built-in download manager.

That built in download manager won't resume a paused download. It will simply download from the start all over again.

Yes, it is very limited with that option. For that option it would be best to use a 3rd party download manager.

I think that's a big thumbs down for the design of that download manager. They should be very logistic with that download manager. It MUST have the option to resume paused downloads for goodness sake already and yet why the hell did they even not include that option?? :|

 

[Brink]

Vertex,

Pause and resume does work on some sites (some Microsoft download sites) if the pause is not for to long, but it is flaky at best.

Yes indeed Shawn...another download manager at the moment should be the best!

Worst, it cuts the download sometimes on some sites, then the download manager window pops-up telling the download aborted...it tooks three times to grab one DL just over 100Mb!!

Hi all
hanks for installing and testing IE9

I'll wait until the first major update by which time the major bugs should have been ironed out.

For the moment ie8 works fine AND the menu bars are translated into the local language I've installed (doesn't work on IE9)

Cheers
jimbo

Oh dear. Unable to scroll on the first page loading (security or something) until it's finished loading. Not for me.

Internet Explorer 10′s hint code found inside IE9!

Sorry if this has already been posted.

Internet Explorer 10′s hint code found inside IE9!

Posted by Abhishek on March 20, 2011

​

We have already mentioned that here that Internet Explorer 10 (IE10) is going to be the default browser in Windows 8.
Now, rumor is roaring more! Initially a dialog was discovered by the Russian website thevista.ru. This dialog box was found only in the RTM version, while it’s wasn’t available in the RC version of IE 9. We further scrutinized the source code resources for IE10 in English language and got:

Get the most from the web. Upgrade from Internet Explorer 9 to Internet Explorer 10 for a fast, clean, and more trusted web browsing experience.
​

It has also been speculated that IE10 will be previewed at MIX11 in April. The above mentioned discovery supports the assumption that IE10 is already under development. Here is screenshot too:

For those that have not downloaded yet IE9 is coming to Windows Update later today.
