Get it here. (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/default.mspx)

I've been using the beta version and like it. Newest feature is tabbed browsing which allows you to have different websites up with out having numerous windows open.

Ya, I know, but I never used it. I always just stuck with IE.

It's not too bad. The tabbed browsing is an improvement. I still prefer the Apple browsers...but since for now I still own PC's I have to live with it.

I am running it and Firefox also

So far no issues, but IMO not as good as Firefox.

I have always had better luck with pop ups with Firefox. Could be the way IE is set up on my system but I dont have the "ask" button checked. I do run spybot and so have trouble at times loading pages. With Firefox the built in blocker is better. At least for me.

I use a stand alone e-mail besides Outlook also. I use Incredimail instead. I love it. I will warn you though, if you try it and like it, go ahead and buy the full program instead of the free. The free has most of the features but leaves an ad that some companies will have blocked since it contains an attachment
