Actually pretty good, but without extensions its only a backup browser for me. Kudos to them for being first to the ground with a stable release of a GPU accelerated browser.

Damn, I already have to test my websites in MSIE 6, MSIE 7, MSIE 8, FF 2, FF 3, Chrome, Safari, Opera 9, 10 and 11 and now I'll have to add MSIE 9 and FF 4. I got like four virtual machines just to test sites on older browsers...

I'm glad they're taking a firm stance towards XP and IE6 now. If MS doesn't force people to upgrade people aren't. They're just going to sit there and pout and say "Windows XP is the greatest OS EVAR!" and be blind, deaf, dumb, and ignorant.

I tried to install this and it said pre release version of windows not supported. What the hell did I get a bunk version from Acer on my laptop.

Microsoft loves to brag that IE9 is fast while ignoring the fact that it is technically inept and incompetent. Unable to handle advances made in the modern web, IE9 is years behind all other browsers in modern standards and compliance support.

Forget IE9 and help move the web forward. Use ANY other browser.

Yeah, but does it have automatic spellchecker? The RC didn't at least. Love me some Firefox, making me appear smarter than I deserve.

It ain't beautiful...but maybe I just need to sit down and install themes. I test drove IE9 on my laptop this morning and it really just like Chrome, but not a sleek. I'll try again after work if I can pull myself away from Dragon Age II.

I have one question:

I downloaded the IE9 Win 7 64bit but when i tried to install it says : "Setup could not verify the installation files. Make sure the cryptographic service is running on this computer."

Now the thing is I checked and the cryptographic service is running but I still have the problem.

Any ideas?
