Internet Explorer 8 Dubbed “Porn Browser”
Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 might still be only in beta but some people are already refering to it as the new “porn browser”. IE8 has a stelth feature which allows you to browse the net anonomously without collecting your personal data, both on the net and your own machine.
Microsoft, rather innocently, say that the feature could be used to book a suprise trip or buying a gift for a loved one without being found out.
It will take something special to convert the large army of Firefox users around the web. Let us know what browser you use and if you use IE8.

I think whatever happens, a lot of users will have migrated to firefox permanently.
As long as IE continues to be able to call OS commands and is built into the shell, it will be more insecure than FF.
