A New Internet Explorer Is On the Way

We have been talking about the browser wars being renewed with the increasing market share of FireFox. Things are really heating up now that Bill Gates has announced the development of a new browser. Originally, the next version of Internet Explorer was supposed to come out with Microsoft's next OS "LongHorn". It appears that they have decided to speed up the release in order to shore up lost market share as well as gaping security and usability issues. We can only hope that the new browser is fully standards compliant, although I doubt that will be the case. If you are a site owner or designer, look to a new browser that your sites will need to be tested against.

Here's the official release, no mention of standards compliance or the addition of features like tabbed browsing that so many Mozilla, Opera and Firefox users have been enjoying for over a year.

Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:MISFIT - news) will release a new version of Internet Explorer, the world's most popular Internet browsing software, with new, built-in security features, Chairman Bill Gates (news - web sites) said on Tuesday.

In a speech at a major security conference here, Gates said Internet Explorer 7.0, with new anti-spyware features, will be released for preliminary testing this summer.

The move comes three years after Microsoft, the world's biggest software company, launched a major initiative to improve the reliability and security of its software, which runs on about 90 percent of all personal computers.
