Eric Lawrence, Microsoft IE security PM, gives the deep and inside technical security and privacy details on Internet Explorer 8 in this webcast with demos from the IE 8 Firestarter event.  Lots of questions were asked - hence why the session went so long!

Check out all of the IE 8 Firestarter sessions by going to the IE 8 Firestarter Tag on Edge (IT Pro related sessions) or IE 8 Firestarter Tag on Channel 9 (Dev related sessions)

顶你IE8,发现现在欧洲这些小国家,怎么一直针对微软的IE8,什么捆绑,用着好比什么都强,中国还是用IE8的用户多,

微软加油,把IE8弄的更好,还有期待WIN7的发行价格在中国可以符合一下国情,个人观点

I just heard from a friend who said that (apparently) the new IE is faster than Firefox. He said this applied for Windows OS. Don't know the comparison if you use Linux or Vista. Is this true? Maireen, sökmotoroptimering

Hello, our

Fuji Xerox company is now using Firefox to browse and download anything on/from Internet. But the new programmer says that Internet Explorer 8 is actually safer. Please write further about this if it is true. You know security is a big issue for companies. If it is really safer, I would have to consider using IE 8 instead of Firefox. Thanks!

It si really helping that you also provide the demos. I downloaded one to help solving the issue. But since it is in English, I need to replay for times until I can get the meaning, lol..

 

James,

Where can we get the full version demo? My company, emu oil Inc., needs it to train the employees in the Information System Department. It's kind of a hard work. Regards, Mya

High level security is good for companies. I even find it hard to open my construction industry website on public places because many have accounts there. Just afraid if the Firewall system is not too good or they have leaks. Thank you. Regards, Lyn

What a good idea top provide the demos. We just love that because it would be much easier to train the employees.

You know, training in our fax server company can take a long time and quite costly. It's just great to adopt this Windows without spending much on training. Thank you for the information.

I would like to see the demos and have some tutorials. Does anyone have reviews on the application? Thank you. Susan -- promotional usb drives

IE8 is actually a very secure browser. A recent study by NSS Labs study shows that Internet Explorer 8 is the best browser for protecting consumers against malware and phishing attacks.
