For those who are tech junkies or need to start testing, IE beta 1 has been released. I haven't used it too much yet, but pretty stable so far. You can find it at the link below.

Just seems like it was yesterday IE 7 was released. Nice to see development on IE is going strong.

I read this title thinking ... Hmm, hasn't IE been out for a while now? How could it be in beta?

Then I saw ... IE 8 is in beta. What a difference a number makes!

It's about time IE gets crash recovery ...

Well I tried it out, and it's definitely a work in progress. Almost impossible to post using it here on DBSTalk, at least in its current state. I think I'll wait for Beta 2. :) /steve

Yea, its ruff. I like to stay up to date and also bounce my tools off of new browsers. While I can do that, it won't be very accurate until probably the next beta.

I tried downloading it and i did. But i can't get it to come up it just says it has to close and report the error. How do I get the IE 7 back Max. Ok It's just for windows vista never mind max
