    I am thinking of installing MSIE 9 but do not know its status.
    Is it still Beta or is it considered relatively safe to do so?
    Thank you

    It's no longer in the Beta stage; it's now in RC (Release Candidate) stage. So, based on my impression from forum comments, it's fairly stable now. I haven't tried it yet; I'm going to wait until the final release.

    If you haven't see http://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=233403, it may be worth a read.

    >>I was just about to try the RC stage until I saw your caveat. I guess we alll know David speaks with wisdom;) so I will wait awhile.
    Thank you for the warning.
    What do you think of Chrome compared with MSIE 8?

    Chrome, Firefox, and Opera are all fine browsers. It's really a matter of personal preference.
