Microsoft IE9 user interface exposure

Microsoft has released four platform previews of IE9, but we won't get to see the user interface until the IE9 Beta is released on September 15. Perhaps you are already a little tired of waiting, Microsoft Russia "think of the user's mind", yesterday on the official website provided a screenshot of the IE9 Beta interface. Of course, the page was later taken down.

This screenshot does not provide any date information, but it does show the new IE9 Logo in the taskbar. According to Microsoft Russia, the new interface is very clean, the new simplified navigation bar leaves more space for the web page, leaving only some of the most commonly used navigation tools, such as forward and back buttons, the integrated address/search bar, and many of the menu items in the old version of IE have been integrated.

Some commonly used trusted websites can be opened directly from the Windows taskbar without the user having to open Internet Explorer first, which means they can be used like traditional Windows applications. "Click Pin in the address bar, or open the site in a new TAB and drag it directly to the taskbar. "Once a website is pinned, its icon is displayed independently of Internet Explorer, and access to the website is a one-click process." (This feature sounds like it's only for Windows 7 users)

IE9 will also support tear-off tabs, which is also a new feature based on Windows Aero Snap. Safari and Firefox already have this feature, allowing users to select a TAB and drag it into a separate window for easy browsing.

A Microsoft spokesperson responded, but did not provide a clear attitude: "Microsoft is encouraged by the interest of so many fans of IE9, but we can not share more details at this time." Although Microsoft did not specify that this is IE9 interface, but several websites said that their own insider confirmed the authenticity of the screenshot.
