As I expected beta 1 of IE8 was very buggy and not much had changed being a developer version and all, IE8 beta 2 is now out and installing it now as I type this so I will post my thoughts on this build when I've had a play around with it. Download Link

| I like the InPrivate option. It let users browse the internet almost anonymously by suspending browsing history, cookies, and other information that may identify the user. This is useful, especially if you are browsing the internet on someone else's PC or you don't want a website to download cookies or other info to your computer. Of course, on IE7 you can delete all cookies and browsing history with just a mouse click (or two), but it will also delete cookies and browsing history that you may want to keep. Turning InPrivate on and off is very simple: To turn on, just open IE8, select a New Tab and click the Start InPrivate Browsing link. To turn it off, just simply exit IE8.

| In my opinion the UI seems a little basic and all the features included in this beta such as 'inPrivate mode' (Against Safari) and 'Smart Address Bar' (Against Firefox 3) nothing is actually new that hasn't been borrowed from elsewhere apart from the feature where you can colour code all of your tabs you have open to specifically sort them if needed. Plus it seems faster to use and a lot less buggy-er which is always a good thing. WARNING (If using XP): IE8 Beta 2 Download Could Make Service Pack 3 On Your System Permanent! To avoid this: 1) Uninstall XP SP3 2) Uninstall IE8 Beta 1 3) Re-Install XP SP3 4) Install IE8 Beta 2
