IE9 beta+Firefox Updates
IE9 beta Apparently now on public release.
Mozilla appear to have suspended automatic updates to Firefox while they work out a few stability 'issues' including start-up crashes. Latest Win version 3.6.10 available via manual download.

Using IE9 as my main browser. Very good it is too.
Anyone trying it may find that you cannot post on this board because there are no fonts shown. In this case you will need to click the compatability icon which will clear the problem.
Just sharing info.

Well: I suppose that they have got to find some way to force us to shell out for a new operating system when the one we have works perfectly!
I was obliged to move from Win 95/98 to XP because of the enhanced photograph handling facilities that it provided. Although Win 7 has some attractive goodies, I don't yet see any significant leap forward in computer technology from its use. Of course when it becomes the norm to use touch screens instead of keyboard/mouse and so on.............
P.P.

Having used IE9 for a few days it does absolutely nothing for me at all, I find it slow, clumsy to use as they have moved things around, not a patch on FireFox 4.





Most of the initial assessments I see are positive.
