Microsoft to launch test build of Internet Explorer refresh in December.
Following its August settlement of a long-standing patent dispute with Eolas, Microsoft is readying a refresh of its Internet Explorer (IE) browser that will
remove an interim “Click to Activate” control setting. It also will be built into the next “pre-release” versions of Windows Vista Service Pack (SP) 1 and Windows XP SP3, Microsoft officials said, via a posting on November 8 to the IE Team Blog. http://blogs.zdnet.com/microsoft/?p=920
