Internet Explorer 9

Unleash the beauty of the web

Internet Explorer 9 harnesses the power of the web, giving you the potential to explore and find what you need - safely and quickly.

Internet Explorer 9 is designed to bring sites front and centre through Windows 7, enabling a more immersive, more beautiful web experience.

Streamlined design: most command bar functions, like Print or Zoom, are accessed from the Tools button, and favourites appear when you click the Favourites button.
Fewer dialogue boxes
More intuitive navigation
Features like Pinned Sites let you pin your favourite website directly to the taskbar for one-click access. Other features like hardware acceleration, deliver an all-round faster browsing experience. With IE9, websites perform and feel more like the programs you use every day on your PC.

Fast

Fully hardware-accelerated graphics, text, video and audio through Windows 7 means that the same markup not only works across the web, but also runs faster and delivers a richer experience. Designed to take full advantage of the power of your computer’s hardware through Windows 7, IE9 delivers dynamic experiences that are as fast and responsive as native applications installed on your computer.
Clean

With IE 9 and Windows 7, we rethought the role of the browser and how people interact with websites and web applications. While other browsers focus on the browser itself, IE9 is site-centric, as opposed to browser-centric. You have the websites you love with a clean look that makes your websites shine.
Trusted
IE9 helps people feel confident and in control. The more that the web becomes part of our everyday lives, the more complex the issues of online trust and browser trust become. IE9 is a trusted way to access the web because it has a robust set of built-in security, privacy and reliability technologies that can help keep you safer and your browsing experience virtually uninterrupted.
