v9.0 [May 24, 2008]
In this version you will find a simplified design, with more screen space devoted to web browsing and less to the browser’s options. You will be able to pin a site to taskbar and later open it with a single click. Searches and sites addresses are entered in the same place and, in each new tab, Internet Explorer will show you a list of your most visited sites. Security has been improved, and many non-essential options are now displayed in a yellow bar, on the bottom of the screen, which will not conflict with your browsing experience. There are more options available in the Download Manager.
