Are you still using IE6?

Dear readers are you still using the Internet Explorer 6 (IE6).If yes then you should read this post.I have seen many people using windows xp are browsing through IE 6.I dont know why people jsut don't see beyond this.One of the main reasons may be because it is default in the windows xp sp2.

Out of which some people still know the new version of IE(7 & 8 beta2).But still they want to stick themselves with this old one.To be frank either they don't know its a free download or they might be feared with the reveies of IE7 which was a flop release with vista Or they don't know the new IE 8 beta2 version is out and available for download compatible with windows xp.

The main new features that IE7 and 8 beta2 are having is the tabs and fast operation(IE 8).I am quite happy with IE8, especially because it Is stable, fast and does not have my #1 IE 7 annoyance. IE7 doesn’t allow you to open more than about 30 pages at the same time (YMMV, but 40 pages is really a dead end). This is the way I browse the Internet and my browser should be able to do support it, period. Actually when you open that many pages on IE7, you cannot open any new windows at all in any program, not even the system menu when you right click on something. IE7 is actually hogging some system wide limit (very strange, BTW).

Internet Explorer 8 looks more elegant and easier to use, while adding many of the missing features.IE8 is fast and compatible with most sitesWhile IE 7 seems unstable with especially with dozens of simultaneously open windows.

I like IE8 Beta better than IE7 retail.So when are you switching to IE8.

Internet Explorer 8 Beta 2 is available for download here.
