Internet explorer 8 beta | Fastest internet browser | My feedback |

No way! Even Firefox does not pass the Acid2 test.

Here is an msdn blog post on the issue: http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2007/12/19/internet-explorer-8-and-acid2-a-milestone.aspx

The Firefox 3 (beta) does pass the acid2 test. I currently use Firexox 3 (beta) and it is the best thing i have ever used. Faster that Firefox2!

I haven't gone ahead and bit the bullet on Firefox 3. Did any of your extensions stop working?

Acid3 test, huh? Looks like no popular browser has gotten it working yet.

I removed all extensions before installing it, just as a precaution.

I just want to now that is it slow or fast? I will only use if it will be faster than ie 7.

IE sucks so bad that it doesn't even work on my computer. I have to have the Internet Explorer tab in firefox to display pages that were made for IE.
Firefox pwns all. Opera is okay.

Ouch i do not like the Firefox beta, its bland, horrid and it looks like i'll stick with this version!

You guys should try Flock. Uses Firefox's engine, but it feels better.

I guess there's a reason it's called Beta. I'm going to stick with the stable versions.

Yesterday i installed Internet Explorer 8 on my computer and i experienced some great features.
200 times faster than Mozilla and IE7.
Ability to recover tabs and data.
High passwords protection.
Safety filter which filters adult material and viruses.

I also experienced that it will not run aol.in website .
So if you want a high speed browser download it now.

I have finally downloaded this considering I have reinstalled everything cos my harddisk has crashed and I had to buy new one. Maybe I will install Vista again as SP1 is out. Lets see how IE8 works. Looks good at start.
