Upgrade was fast and smooth.. of course a reboot was required. Browser is snappy as ever and rendering great. Off to run some browser tests/benchmarks

Can't wait to see how it compares to IE9

Does this overwrite IE9 upon installing it?

I'm testing it at work. The performance is fine, no complaints there. But what's with using Win8 scrollbars in the Win7 version? That's just lazy, MS.

Well I have got Windows 7 and I have never upgraded to IE9. I have stuck with IE8 which is the default version of IE that comes with Windows 7, when you install it. IE10 is exactly the same as IE9. It is slow and slows down the whole of Windows.So if Microsoft think that I or anyone else is going to install IE10 they must be joking. I have uninstalled IE10 from my Windows 8 as well. So the answer to the question will I install IE10 on my Windows 7 is NO WAY.

IE 9/10 is the best browser ever made by Microsoft. Please stop posting here if you cannot get you facts straight. They are 100% faster and more secure than IE8. Just Google the benchmarks for them and stop being so ignorant. What A/V do you use Norton 2006? /s

Bahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

I like how you talk about IE9 but also tell us you never installed it. Do you actually use IE8 as your default browser?
