Browser software company, Opera, has complained to the European Commission over Microsoft's bundling of Internet Explorer with the Windows operating system -- but Microsoft says it's been doing it for a decade and the practice is good for consumers.
Microsoft and Mozilla are each working to tackle recently disclosed security flaws in the Internet Explorer and Firefox Web browsers.
Internet Explorer is more secure than Firefox, according to a senior Microsoft executive, who compared how many vulnerabilities were found in the two browsers -- but critics say his study is flawed.
Microsoft has released Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 for download this morning.
Firefox 3.5, the embodiment of Mozilla's attempt to "upgrade the web", is now available for Windows and Mac.
Google has announced a new Chrome Operating System, designed for the web and with a browser baked directly into it so much so that the entire OS is named after it. But the search giant should watch out: this decision seems designed to attract antitrust attention.
If the Internet is God, and the browser my shepherd, I am a lost lamb who has been waiting for the Prophet to answer my call: What are those icon-less buttons at the bottom of Internet Explorer 7?
Microsoft is going to let everyone -- even people with an illegal pirate copy of Windows XP -- download IE7 because the software giant really cares about the safety and security of all Internet users. (But don't mention Firefox ...)
Microsoft's current Internet Explorer 8 marketing push continues to leave a bad lingering aftertaste.
Microsoft has announced that from next week, it will begin deploying its Internet Explorer 8 browser to the majority of users via Automatic Update and there was much rejoicing and a feeling of relief.
The internet has exploded in a single, joyous, mass-hallucination called Chrome. Apparently it's the fastest browser ever and will solve a myriad of problems from slowness within Google Spreadsheet to possibly creating an acceptable carbon trading scheme.
The Mozilla Foundation is perhaps best known for its Firefox web browser, an open source offering that was first developed to go head-to-head with Microsoft's Internet Explorer.
The long-awaited Internet Explorer 7 debuted recently -- and a brand-new flaw promptly debuted a day later. While Redmond argued that the vulnerability actually comes from Outlook Express, it still affects IE7. But Mike Mullins says it doesn't bode well for the browser update, whose security enhancements Microsoft has been touting.
Opera CTO Hkon Wium Lie must feel a special kinship with the "Band of Brothers" soliloquy that Shakespeare reserves for Henry V.
Internet Explorer 7 is designed to make browsing safer. Here's a quick rundown of some of the new security features.
Internet Explorer 8 takes some long-needed strides to bring it up to speed with its competitors. It's more secure, with tab sandboxing and more aggressive malicious site warnings, and introduces some slick new features like Accelerators and Web slices. Even with better support for web standards, it's far from perfect.
A few other all-in-ones make this 20-inch iMac look expensive on a dollars-per-screen-inch basis, but none are as attractive or as capable juggling multiple programs.
Michael Kordahi talks about IE8 and the new features it contains.
Microsoft has learned some very serious lessons when it comes to complying with Web standards after taking heavy criticism from the industry and, more importantly, a beating in the browser market share.
Mozilla CEO Mitchell Baker says Firefox is predominantly about promoting a healthy and open Internet where no company or individual holds a monopoly on innovation.
Microsoft's new Internet Explorer browser is now available -- from Yahoo.
The software maker launches its first major update to the browser in years, offering tabbed browsing and security additions.
