Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 Release Candidate 1 (RC1) Reviewed @ ITreviewed

[news 28]

Hello,

 

 

 

We've just posted our latest review and would love it if you linked to it.

Thanks greatly!

 

 

 

"IE8 delivers significant security improvements over its predecessors and is

more robust and faster than IE8 beta 2. But given the extent to which

cybercrime relies on social engineering, users of IE8, like other modern

browsers, would be well advised to remain cautious in the sites that they

visit and the information that they disclose online. It's only a matter of

time before someone figures out a way around IE8's new defences. The new

version brings enhancements in private browsing, accessibility, overall

reliability and speed. RC1 reaches a significant development milestone

towards a browser that can compete on closer footing with Firefox, Safari,

Chrome and Opera in terms of features. However, Web standards support

(especially CSS 3) and performance is still far behind the competition.

Maybe it's time for Microsoft to give up and let Internet Explorer make way

for the generation of browsers."
