Microsoft has confirmed that the upcoming version of its Internet Explorer browser will include tabbed browsing, a feature made popular by competitors Opera and Firefox.
Internet Explorer is to get a makeover with the arrival of IE 7, including a revised logo and name.
Weeks after promising tabs in its upcoming IE 7 release, Microsoft made the long-awaited browsing feature available for IE 6 through its MSN toolbar.
The next version of Microsoft's much criticised Internet Explorer browser is being built to resist hijacking attempts by spyware and other malicious software, according to a Microsoft developer.
Microsoft unveiled the final pre-release of Internet Explorer 8 (IE8) overnight. In this gallery we benchmark the latest release, and show you the new features in the world's most popular web browser.
I've been playing around with a beta build of Firefox's 3.6 browser for some time, and while it's been completely stable, its new tab behaviour has annoyed me.
A rash of creativity has overcome browser vendors recently in a completely unexpected place: the content of the new tab page.
Microsoft's current Internet Explorer 8 marketing push continues to leave a bad lingering aftertaste.
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 ...)
In 2007, IE6 will almost certainly lose its crown as the most popular Web browser after holding the title for many, many years.
Tabbed browsing is a feature that has been available in alternative browsers for many years but Microsoft has finally caught up with IE7. Here is a demo on how to make the most out of the new feature and also a demonstration Vista's shrink-to-fit feature, which automatically resizes pages before sending them to your printer.

Sorry if it sounds like I'm drinking the Google Kool-Aid here, but I have switched from Mozilla Firefox to Google Chrome as my default browser for the very reason Google's executives said we should: speed.
The new version of Internet Explorer will include tabbed browsing but will this be enough to entice Firefox users to convert?

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.
Mozilla Firefox 2 is a winner, beating Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 on security, features, and overall cool factor and deserving our Editors' Choice award.

No new changes in this latest build of IE 7 from Microsoft, except for more stability and application compatibility, but this browser still is not ready for prime time.
Is Internet Explorer 7 just another security patch disguised as a "new" offering? Should it rightfully be called IE 6.1 for Windows XP Service Pack 2, asks Fran Foo.
