With Internet Explorer 8, Microsoft is looking to stem the loss of market share to rivals like Firefox, Safari, Chrome and Opera. The browser has had a serious revamp, but has Microsoft done enough?
A computer science researcher has highlighted the shortcomings of Microsoft's latest patch for its Internet Explorer browser by identifying another way that online vandals could run malicious programs on a Web surfer's computer.
A look at the changes Microsoft has put into its beta version of IE 7. The browser is now available to the public.

In light of the unpatched IE zero day, AusCERT has cautiously advised organisations to "consider" using an alternative browser; or even kill browsing altogether. For organisations with locked down computers, is it time to support two browsers?
