Here's the LINK to download

Internet Explorer 9 Beta

[Lloyd_mcse]

Seems very nice so far, but then I have only just installed it

[Lloyd_mcse]

As I said in the Adobe x64 thread, you can now get Adobe Flash Player for x64 browsers

Adobe Flash Player - Download - 32 & 64bit Versions

Java - Download - 32 & 64bit versions

The only thing I am missing is Silverlight x64, but other than that the x64 version of IE8 and IE9 Beta are very responsive, IE9 is very slick, I'm pleased with it

Time to ditch your 32bit browsers

I like it alot, one annoying thing is when I add a favourite my desktop refreshes. I got the same in the RC version but not in the Betas - Typical

One thing i would like to point out about Browser Security - I am yet to see a new security vulnerabilitiy (Comodo Hacker Guardian alerts for PCI Regs) for IE but I have for Safari, Chrome and Firefox. Just this week there are 6 or 7 new vulnerabilities for FF, Chrome and Safari. So there does seem to be a misconception about browser security.

Make of this what you will, but I have made my choice

Ok on another security note, one day with ie8 SUPERAntispyware shows 54 tracking cookies, one day with ie9 125 tracking cookies.
So I'm not changing over just yet on all my PCs, just testing on one.

I'm still getting the desktop icons refreshing when I add a favourite with the WU version.
Seems to be a common problem - shame
