IE 6.0 ... end of the line?

Saturday, October 26, 2002 by goodmorphing | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I have heard from usually reliable sources that there are no plans to keep developing IE. Instead all efforts will be on the MSN Explorer. I am really hoping this is wrong...

but if it turns out to be true, what alternate browsers will fill the space... Opera? Netscape?

Ah.... that makes it nice and simple! I guess that since I unzipped it into an inconvenient place, then I can just copy it and move it somewhere else! Thanks, paxx.

MyIE2 has a new version out! (6.0 beta) Something I really like about this one is you can make it go full screen, and then apply the (new) tool-bar auto-hide feature. That makes more of the screen available for browsing, and still is convenient since the tool-bar opens when the mouse approaches it.

Here's a little story about IE and upcoming versions: (yes I know the address has .com.com, but it is a legit site)

IE update to debut ahead of plans
SAN FRANCISCO--Reversing its longstanding policy, Microsoft said on Tuesday that it will ship an update to its browser separately from the next version of Windows.

That is good news. I have been using it for about a month and it seems to do a nice job. Of course I update it manually and still use my other programs.

Did anybody see this yet? http://techrepublic.com.com/5100-22_11-5578815.html?tag=nl.e019

The article talks about the browser updates and windows updates will be shipped seperate from each other and they also mention IE 7.0. But I'll stay with my Firefox. I'll just update IE to fill in Window holes.
