"Missing from the browser are critical user navigation tools such as the address bar, as well as security features like the SmartScreen anti-malware filter and IE8's private-browsing mechanism."

That's a big thing to be missing. My biggest problem with IE is awkward implementation of their menu items, toobars, options and navigational buttons. Completely unintuitive.

Explorer is target #1 for adware and spyware. Firefox is much more secure, plus great ad-ons are available, like Ad-block.

Still even more secure is Opera.

Like IE8 doesn’t have enough bugs to fix.

(And I am a user, I laughingly say from behind layers of security software and technical ability.)

IE7, IE8 are BLOATWARE. But don't feel too good about it FireFox fans, because it is very close behind. Sure its a better product than the IE's, but its pretty bloated.

I currenly use Chrome. Lean and mean. Not a big Google fan, but Chrome works well on older hardware, and on newer hardware it is still much faster than IE.

I am not a fanboi or a hater of any company or any browser, so I am just looking for _results_. I'll take a look at IE9 when it comes out fully later, and will consider changing to it if it works well.
