Internet Explorer, the number one internet web-browser (by use) recently got a new edition in its lineup. After huge popularity of IE 7 Microsoft launched this next edition of IE after 2 Years (IE 7 was launched in 2006). Internet Explorer 8 (final) is launched on March 19, 2009 and is available for download.
As, Micorosft Windows is most popular and most used operating system, and Internet Explorer is free with Windows OS, Internet Explorer becomes the number one web browser. Internet Explorer is also famous for its simplicity. Most of the people even not aware of other web browsers.
So whats next ?
Download IE 8 from Microsoft.
Download Portable IE 8
More about IE 8 from Wikipedia.
If you are user of IE, then i recommend you to try Firefox, because it is much faster, better than that of IE.
Why ? read a post about : Why i prefer Firefox over Internet Explorer
Microsoft is claiming that this is the fastest browser using many modern techniques, take a look at this video to know What Microsoft wants to say.

It is really a good achievement. I just read on digg that in a hacking test of Web Browsers, Safari wrecked in a few seconds whereas Firefox and IE8 took hours!!

For me internet starts and ends with Firefox. I cannot even imagine browsing the net without Firefox, customized to serve of best. 1 click to download any video I like, bookmarks and passwords are constantly in sync etc.
