August 28th, 2008

Microsoft announced to release IE8 Beta 2 today for public download. You can find it at http://www.microsoft.com/ie8. Please try it out!

You’ll find versions for 32- and 64-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, and Windows Server 2008. In addition to English, IE8 Beta 2 is available in Japanese, Chinese (Simplified), and German. Additional languages will be available soon.

Internet Explorer 8 Beta 2 comes with new features to enhance privacy, ease-of-use, and security. Microsoft first released Beta 1 version of IE 8 in March, but that was aimed at letting Web developers take a first look at the new browser. This latest version is aimed at a broader consumer audience.

    If IE would like to lead ahead, MS has to work on memory management and performance.
