I am not a IE fan. But the new browser promises much better services to change the minds of non IE fans like me. The feedback given by the users during its beta has been well incorporated in this official version. The telemetry feedback of beta users has helped in providing reliability, performance and compatibility improvements.
The “security” issues has also been well looked into. The IE8 RC1 has build in ‘clickjacking protection’. This means that site owners can now protect their users from clickjacking attacks without any add-ons or extensions.
IE8 is focused on how people use web brwsers. Its basic aim is to provide fast and reliable browsing to web users on a daily basis. Overall, the IE8 RC1 is worth using. Grab it now.
