Internet Explorer 10 News: Secret Code in IE9 + MIX 2011
Now that Internet Explorer 9 is out, I can’t wait for Internet Explorer 10. Microsoft made a huge, huge step into the right direction with IE9, if the Internet Explorer 10 can build upon that success, it could very well become the most popular browser in the world and reclaim much of the browser market share.
Personal Note: If it wasn’t for Firefox’s many extensions, I’d probably trash it right now. Chrome is even more unstable recently. IE9 simply works and is fast enough for my individual needs. What’s your experience? IE9, Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Safari? What do you use?
Internet Explorer 10: Secret Code in IE9
The news about Microsoft’s Internet Explorer 10 comes from abroad. Some internet savvy people in China recently made an announcement that Internet Explorer 8 is already programmed to set Internet Explorer 10 as the default browser. How could that be when Internet Explorer 9 is barely out and Internet Explorer 10 does not exist?
It seems that the software engineers at Microsoft have prepared for the roll out of Internet Explorer 10. Deep in the software code of Internet Explorer 8 and 9 there is a dialog box which reads, “Internet Explorer 10 is now available. 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.”
Will Windows 8 Ship With IE10?
Over in Russia, some web gurus found the same dialogue. What this all means is obvious, Microsoft is developing Internet Explorer 10. It is possible that it will be ready for release on or before they roll their next operating system Windows 8 in 2012. Although these dialogues where in foreign languages, the people at Windows8Beta.com found English code that says, “Internet Explorer 10 is now available.” These discoveries indicate that Microsoft definitely plans to roll out an Internet Explorer 10.
IE10: Touchscreen Features?
There are a lot of web browsers out there, so competition is stiff. The benchmarks of a web browser are speed and functionality. Internet Explorer 10 will probably be another tad faster than IE9. Also, there is a rumor that the new Internet Explorer 10 will have new touch-screen features. Touch screen devices and software is popular these days, so it would be great if Microsoft would include touch-screen functionality in its new IE10.
Internet Explorer 10 @ MIX 2011?
Users are looking forward to a timely release of Internet Explorer 10. We already reported, that Microsoft plans to release the Internet Explorer 10 in 2012. Recent news headlines state that at the 2011 MIX Microsoft will be showing off Internet Explorer 10.

Hmmm….I downloaded the IE9 beta version months and months ago and almost as soon as it was on my system, it was removed again. I know beta versions are likely to be riddled with bugs so I understood the risk of that and indeed it was just too buggy for me. IE 9 final was just ridiculous, it slowed my laptop to a crawl for no apparent reason, and I noticed it wanted to do thousands of registry edits – yet on reverting back to IE 8, it only undid 98% of those edits. Chrome may be unstable, but that too has extensions all of it’s own, and I use lots of them and I’ve NEVER had a problem with it. Firefox may be fine, but I’ve never used it because I’m too used to using either IE 8 or Chrome, depending on what I want to get done and whether or not it needs doing quickly. IE 9 I was just severely disappointed with. Graphically it may have been quite impressive on some websites, but generally it was much slower, much more of a hog, and much more of a pain in the ass to use.
